Electric Factory Wiki Information
The Electric Factory
is a concert venue in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The original "Electric Factory" venue was a converted tire warehouse at 22nd and Arch Streets, which opened in 1968 and closed in 1973. The first performers, on February 2, 1968, were the Chambers Brothers.
The building was torn down and replaced with condominiums.
The "Electric Factory" was resurrected circa late 1994 or early 1995 and now stands at the current site (located at 421 N. 7th Street between Willow and Spring Garden Streets) which is an actual converted electric factory.
The standing-room-only capacity is approximately 2,500 to 3,000 people, including the second-floor area which overlooks the stage from stage left. Spectators in this area often have the bonus of being able to view a portion of the backstage.
The venue features a variety of musical acts in the rap, heavy metal, rock, and grunge genres. The venue is highly thought of as one of the nation's leading indoor music venues in a city with one of rock music's largest and best educated rock music fan bases.
The Factory was host to the filming of Rock band Underoath's new live DVD.
