The Westcott Theater is a live-music venue in Syracuse's Westcott neighborhood, hosting touring bands, DJs, comedy, and community events in a converted theatre space. It gives visitors a more local night out than the downtown arena or university event calendar.
Its value depends on the schedule, so check listings before planning around it. When the bill is right, the venue is a useful window into Syracuse's student-and-neighbourhood music scene, with restaurants and bars nearby for an easy evening.
