Bill Graham Civic Celebrates 10 Years of Shows After Rebirth

It’s a strange time to be celebrating a music venue when everything has been cancelled or postponed. But it’s also the perfect time to look back and confirm our love of the live show. This year marks the 10 year anniversary of the revitalization of one of our favorite local venues, the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. To celebrate the occasion we put together a few of our favorite images captured by SF Station photographers.
“When the venue was reborn 10 years ago, the neighborhood was in an extremely bad state… We are so proud to be the steward of this building, which has now developed a long history of both musical excellence and community involvement. Here’s to another 10 years.” – Gregg Perloff, CEO & Founder of Another Planet Entertainment
