Top San Francisco music venues

Chase Center

Alongside basketball, Chase Center functions as one of Northern California’s main indoor concert arenas, hosting large pop, rock, and touring productions. Its modern design, bayside location, and NBA‑scale capacity make it a frequent stop for major artists routing through the Bay Area.

Bill Graham Civic Auditorium

Bill Graham Civic Auditorium near Civic Center is a multi‑purpose arena that has long been central to San Francisco’s concert history. City‑owned and operated by Another Planet Entertainment, it holds around 8,500 people for events and hosts a wide mix of shows across genres each year.

Other theatres and halls

Within a compact area around Civic Center and Market Street you will also find venues such as the War Memorial Opera House, Orpheum Theatre, SFJAZZ Center, and Davies Symphony Hall, along with smaller rooms like Rickshaw Stop. This cluster means you can often combine a performance with nearby museums, restaurants, and bars on the same evening.

Top San Francisco attractions

San Francisco’s best‑known sights mix bay crossings, hillside viewpoints, historic streets, and island tours.

Highlights include:

• Golden Gate Bridge, the 1.7‑mile suspension bridge linking San Francisco to Marin, accessible by car, bike, and on foot, and one of the city’s defining viewpoints.
• Alcatraz Island, combining the former federal prison with historic military sites, gardens, wildlife, and some of the bay’s most striking views, reached by ferry from Pier 33.
• Fisherman’s Wharf and Pier 39, a waterfront area known for seafood, bay cruises, and sea lions hauled out on nearby docks.
• Lombard Street, the steep block with eight tight hairpin turns often described as the “crookedest street” in the world, best photographed from the bottom looking up.
• City viewpoints and districts such as the Painted Ladies and Alamo Square, Chinatown, Golden Gate Park, and Twin Peaks, each offering a different angle on the skyline and bay.

Planning your San Francisco visit

When you plan a San Francisco stay, it helps to anchor your dates around one or two headline events, such as a Warriors game at Chase Center, a Giants home date at Oracle Park, or a 49ers game or stadium concert at Levi’s Stadium, and then weave in bridge crossings, neighborhood walks, and island visits. With key tickets secured ahead of time, you can rely on Muni, BART, Caltrain, ferries, and walkable districts to move between venues and sights while leaving space for spontaneous coffee stops, viewpoints, and side streets.

From a night at Chase Center or Bill Graham Civic Auditorium to an afternoon game at Oracle Park and a day between the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, Alcatraz, and Lombard Street, you can build a San Francisco itinerary that balances sport, live music, and the city’s most memorable landmarks.
