Garden Gate Plants Roots in Spokane

Garden Gate Opens in Spokane’s Monroe District: A New Event Space That Doubles as a Hub for Music, Art & Community

Spokane’s music scene is ever-growing, and with that growth comes a brand new space planting roots in the Monroe District. Garden Gate officially opened its doors this month with a mission to be more than just a venue. It’s a community-centered space built to nurture and celebrate Spokane’s creative energy, from intimate concerts and workshops to art galleries and private events like bridal showers and birthday parties.

The Sound of Summer Begins This Week

Garden Gate kicks off its opening month with their Summer Concert Series starting this Tuesday, May 6, featuring local talent Tyler Alai, with opening sets by Jaeda and Terri Parrish. The venue’s beautiful patio couldn’t be a more perfect setting for live music on warm summer nights. You can expect a vibrant mix of performance, community, local fresh pizza, and drinks flowing all night.

More Than Music

But Garden Gate isn’t just about concerts. It’s designed as a space for a multitude of experiences. Art galleries, creative workshops, community gatherings, and showcases that give Spokane creatives a space . The space celebrates and brings together local creatives, not just through the events they host, but throughout the physical space as well.

The name Garden Gate isn’t just metaphorical, it’s the atmosphere. As you walk in through the gate, you’re immersed in greenery, color, and intentional design. Plants and flowers line the space, and nearly everything inside carries a story: from up-cycled tables made from heirloom doors, to murals painted by local artists, and furniture sourced within the community. It’s a venue that feels as grounded as it is inspiring.

Adding to Spokane’s Musical Legacy

Spokane’s music culture has long thrived through historic venues like The Big Dipper, Knitting Factory, and the countless dive bars and pop-up shows that make this city an inspiring place for musicians. Garden Gate enters to expand the ever growing concert experiences here, offering a fresh, inclusive space for creatives of all kinds to collaborate, connect, and grow.

Whether you’re looking for a place to host your gatherings, a band looking for a summer stage, an artist with an idea, or a collective dreaming up a gallery night, this gate is open. We’re thrilled to see Garden Gate’s mission come to life.
