The Wormhole

Close enough to the Historic District to attract a downtown crowd but far enough away to guarantee that parking won't be a nightmare, the Wormhole is great music, a laid-back atmosphere and cheap beer. The performance venue hosts local and touring bands from a variety of genres under the general heading of alternative and has been a major supporter of the Savannah Stopover, a music festival held each spring for performers en route to Austin, Texas for SXSW. In addition to live music, the venue also hosts comedy shows, theatrical performances, art exhibits and fashion shows. The bar, which many laud for its authentic dive-like ambience, features a performance area, full bar, billiards tables, video games and dartboards.
