An open-air, courtyard concert venue in downtown St. Petersburg with a capacity of 2,000 hosts an eclectic array of touring talent as well as DJs, local acts and other events. Once a run-down (but beloved) courtyard venue in downtown St. Pete, it has been thoroughly overhauled and packed with amenities, without sacrificing its rustic charm. It is a perfect place to enjoy ive acts from all over the world. A full patio bar in the courtyard's back corner, augmented by several mobile bar stations situated strategically throughout the venue means patrons can obtain a libation with a minimum of wait (or walk). A balcony area accommodates more than 200 fans and includes seven private VIP suites. The upstairs area includes a separate bar and an enlarged party deck in the back. The balcony includes the Crystalhead Vodka Lounge, a club that can accommodate roughly 200, with an excellent sound system. A floor level VIP area, the Captain Morgan Party Deck, features excellent sightlines of the stage.

Great Venue in the heart of St Pete. Unique set up and the staff was great. You can grab a great big slice of pizza, almost like 2 slices for $5 and drinks reasonable considering being at a music event.

Among the best small concert venues in America. Intimate, accessible and the acoustics are great. Took my kids to their first show last week and, as usual, a great time for all!

I’ve been going to Jannus live for over 10 years now. I’ve been to a lot of concerts there and always have a great time. I’ve seen shows from every part of the venue whether it was right at the front on the barricade, all the way in the back corner, upstairs on the balcony and even side stage. The venue itself is not huge so pretty much anywhere you are is a good spot. They also get surprisingly good bands which makes the size of the venue even better because it’s more intimate than going to a big arena or amphitheater. I do wish they would get rid of the tree in the courtyard, but that just me.

Jannus Live was a blast. No seating but lots of space. It is paved/brick/stone so you're not standing in dirt which is nice. Drinks were strong. Restroom was large and clean. Never had to stand in a line. Going in was super simple.

Great little venue. Nothing is overpriced. Pizza was great ( cash only), mixed drinks were good and the beer wasn't overpriced either. Wish they had an actual ADA area, as this was the first time we've ever needed one, but we checked with them beforehand and they told us about the raised deck in back with a ramp that worked pretty well for us. Parking was able to be found with a couple minutes walk. It was easy to get in and the staff was friendly.
