The Paramount, a club located in Huntington, Long Island, has been named the number-one club venue worldwide by Pollstar Magazine.
Pollstar Magazine is one of the leading concert and live music industry magazines, and announced that The Paramount raked in the majority of ticket sales compared to other clubs worldwide in 2022, making over $10.5 million this year in tickets. The venue has been steadily climbing the charts at Pollstar, cracking the Top 15 in 2014, and the Top 5 in 2017.
The Paramount opened in late 2011, led by the vision of owners Dominick Catoggio, Jim Condron, Brian Doyle, and Stephen Ubertini. They designed the building from a restored 1927 vaudeville theater and transformed it into what it is today, a brick and steel space that fits comfortably in downtown NYC. In a joint statement, the owners said they were “humbled… and proud,” and that “our success is all in part to our amazing fans who continue to support our vision.”
There have been many iconic artists who have graced the stage at The Paramount, with its initial success coming from a performance by Billy Joel followed by a surprise show with Ed Sheeran, who said that The Paramount was his favorite venue. Over the decade since its opening, artists like Twenty One Pilots, Blondie, Camila Cabello, Halsey, BB King, Jane’s Addiction, Pitbull, Judas Priest, Limp Bizkit, and Mac Miller have performed there.
The Paramount hosts over 200 events each year, from comedy to music to even family shows. There is a little bit of something for everyone at the venue, which is why it fits with the title of the number one club in the world.
