Valparaiso

A city in the Chicago area

Valparaiso, county seat of Porter County, Indiana, sits within the Chicago metropolitan area and supports a live-music scene anchored by a mix of a historic performing-arts hall and a longstanding neighborhood bar. The Memorial Opera House, a historic hall listed on the National Register of Historic Places, produces theatrical performances each year and hosts community concerts and other events. The 364-seat hall has hosted the likes of Teddy Roosevelt, John Philip Sousa, and the Marx Brothers and now offers a Mainstage Season of Broadway musicals featuring the local theatre community. Franklin House, established in 1857, is one of Northwest Indiana's oldest bars, on the corner of Indiana Ave and Campbell St in downtown Valparaiso. It puts on live bands every week. Beer enthusiasts can explore 24 draft lines and over 100 different brews. Tommy B's Clubhouse rounds out the three dedicated music venues in the city, though specific booking information was not available to verify.
