About the Business

Specialties

The Crocodile has been the soundtrack of Belltown, hosting incredible bands including Nirvana, Yoko Ono, Pearl Jam, R.E.M., Lizzo, and Billie Eilish. If you didn't know, we've moved a few blocks, but don't you worry, the "new" Croc is like the old Croc but better and a hell of a lot bigger. Built on Seattle's grunge legacy, The Crocodile is historical but not history. We're still here, supporting Seattle's local music and arts scene while becoming a destination for the world's biggest touring artists. When we opened our doors at the original location, no one could've guessed we'd be where we are now. We have been host to so many artists' first shows and we've been some iconic artists' last, we've been around long enough to see ripped jeans & flannels fall out of and back into fashion at least 4 times, and we have no plans to miss the 5th.

History

Established in 1991.

Music fans far and wide have recognized the Crocodile as Seattle's best live music venue. There is no other spot in the 206 with such a storied and beloved past, and no other rock and roll venue that has earned its right to occupy the hearts of so many. Among the incredible bands that have played within the walls of Belltown's much loved living room are Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Cheap Trick, R.E.M., Mudhoney, and Yoko Ono.
