The Iron Horse has been a fixture of the downtown Northampton music scene for decades, booking folk, jazz, indie, and roots acts in an intimate room at 18 Center Street. It’s one of a handful of Pioneer Valley venues where touring musicians regularly stop between Boston and New York.
After a period of uncertainty, the Parlor Room Collective, a local non-profit 501(c)(3) that also runs the nearby Parlor Room, bought the Iron Horse in September 2023 and reopened it in May 2024 after eight months of renovation. The booking has returned to the club’s usual mix of songwriters, small touring acts, and Valley stalwarts. The box office at (413) 200-0425 opens 2:30–4:00pm on show days.
