Paradiso is a prominent music venue that offers incredible concerts and performances. The venue has hosted a wide variety of legendary acts in the past. With 2 different stages, you can see different types of shows, whether you want a big name artist or something more intimate.
Being a live concert venue, it's typically not the best place to take young children. Not all the performances are adults only, however, as teenagers and some preteens may have plenty of fun. Most people spend about 2 or 3 hours here, though the length of any show will vary based on the artist.

Paradiso highlights
One of the most impressive aspects of this venue is how well it transformed a church into a music venue. The acoustics echoed when it first opened, but several improvements in the decades since have optimised the sound quality.
Inside the venue, you'll find 2 stages. The main concert hall is large and offers space for 1,500 guests. Meanwhile, the upper-floor stage offers a more intimate experience with room for 250 guests. The latter is set up by a cafe, so the musical performances tend to be more laid-back, with acoustic sets being especially popular.

Good to know when visiting Paradiso
Before you visit Paradiso, keep a few things in mind. The accessibility options here are impressive. Visitors in a wheelchair can enter via a side entrance and take the lift up to the balcony, if necessary. If your phone is cracked or dim, it's best to bring a physical ticket to ensure entrance.
The venue itself doesn't have an age restriction, but some of the particular concerts might. Be sure to check the information on a show to see if there are restrictions in place. Additionally, the venue's club nights usually have an 18+ rule.
