Events

The Performance Space is an intimate, mixed-use space. We present standing and seated events: concerts, theater, dance parties, workshops, meditation, storytelling, and more—all with full bar service. View our ticketing policies.
All Music Visual Arts Signature Other
The Performance Space at 3S is built for sound. It’s a comfortable and intimate club vibe whether we’re fully seated for folk, Americana, and singer-songwriters, or when a show is standing-room-only for indie rock, soul, chillwave, and metal.

3S celebrates artistic excellence. Celebrate with us: visit us for exhibit Opening Receptions, Meet The Artist events, artist-led workshops, or during Portsmouth’s first Friday art walk, Art ‘Round Town.

There are no upcoming events at this time. Please check back soon!

 

Each year, 3S produces and presents fan-favorite events like Project Upcycle and the Form + Function artisan fair. We’re also proud to partner with community producers to present programming like Couch to Mic and Long Story Short as part of our signature series.
