About Angel Inn
Angel Inn is a grassroots music venue in Durham, Durham with a standing capacity of approximately 60. Bring your own PA, mics and instruments.
Angel Inn books Rock, Indie, Metal, Punk, Acoustic, Open-mic, Covers acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Durham venue directory.
The Angel Inn is a 60-cap free house at 53 Crossgate, Durham's only dedicated rock and alternative music bar. Live bands play every Saturday (and most Fridays), with open-mic nights and a popular Wednesday music quiz pulling in the city's student and alternative crowds. With Durham's bigger venues focused on theatre and classical, the Angel is one of very few central spots regularly booking grassroots rock, punk and folk — and it has the best beer garden in town to match.
