The venue has two performance spaces, the downstairs Music Hall (capacity approx. 600 standing) and the upstairs Lounge (capacity approx. 200 standing, but most shows there are seated so capacity is lower)

Located in the same building that WXPN (and their syndicated radio show 'World Cafe') is broadcast from. World Cafe Live is an independent for-profit entity that pays a yearly fee to license the World Cafe name from WXPN.
