Located in the historic Lexington Distillery District, The Burl was originally built in 1926 as a loading dock and hub for Texaco Oil. The original wood frame building and open layout have helped to create a welcoming space for any and all genres of music. Averaging around 300 nights of music a year, The Burl has quickly become one of the most prolific venues in the commonwealth and we’re proud to be in the heart of the Bluegrass.
