Grab a Drink and Enjoy a Show in Sioux Falls
Ready to dust off your party shoes, and enjoy a night out on the town? If singing along and dancing until dawn is your cup of tea, Sioux Falls offers several spots for the perfect combo of signature cocktail drink (or a few!) and a spectacular show. Grab your significant other—or your group of best friends—and explore the city’s lively club and entertainment scene.
Drink, dine, and feel the beat at your favorite bar.
Start the night with a glass of Cab or a stellar martini at Paramount Studio Cocktails & Food. Add a small plate like shrimp cocktail or mussels, or go for dessert first with a slice of midnight layer cake with raspberry sauce. An upscale companion bar to Minerva’s restaurant, Paramount excels at showing off its elegant, old-world ambiance—and irresistible, throwback charm with live piano and big band-style music on weekends.
Prefer a more modern experience? Check out PAve. With concrete floors and contemporary interiors, the two-floor bar comes with exposed lighting and a buzzing atmosphere. Enjoy a beer and fried bacon downstairs, or go upstairs for a completely different vibe, paired with an outdoor terrace. PAve has a DJ on weekends to keep the dancing going.
Focus on center stage with music and artistic performances.

The jewel of Sioux Falls’ live arts scene is unquestionably the Washington Pavilion With three tiers of seating and boasting the home of the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra, the Pavilion hosts music enthusiasts and stage supporters—from the state governor to your most artsy friend next door.
