The Midway San Francisco

The Midway sits on Marin Street in San Francisco’s industrial southeast. It is a twenty-minute walk from the warehouses and waterfront regeneration of Pier 70.

The venue prioritizes dance, house, and techno over the mainstream sets heard at bars closer to the city centre. While the space runs smart and elegant, the room is stripped back and cavernous, making it a better fit for those who prefer an immersive sound system to the polished, compact aesthetic of clubs in the Mission. It is a long walk from the Chase Center, yet the isolation is its primary strength; it allows for a scale of production that the cramped clubs near the city’s heart cannot physically accommodate.
