About The Tram Depot
The Tram Depot is a grassroots music venue in Cambridge, Cambridge. PA system and vocal mics are provided; bring your own instruments and amps.
The Tram Depot books Folk, Jazz, Reggae acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Cambridge venue directory.
The Tram Depot is a characterful central Cambridge bar at 5 Dover Street (CB1 1DY), set in the former stables of the 1880s horse-drawn Cambridge Street Tramways — there's still a section of original track by the door and a life-size model tram out front. It pours 12 keg taps, 6 cask ales and 3 ciders alongside homemade specials and Italian pizzas. Live music runs every Thursday from 8pm, headlined by The Tram Sessions open mic (5–6 floor spots of three songs plus a booked headliner around 10pm), and the wider programme takes in a monthly folk night, a weekly speakeasy jazz jam, reggae and Latino nights. A house PA is provided and both originals and covers are welcome.
