Plan your visit
Use 540 Penn Street NE, not Songbyrd’s former Adams Morgan address. NoMa–Gallaudet U Metro is about a 15-minute walk, and free parking is often available around Union Market. Most shows are standing-room; arrive early for limited stools or tables and bring valid, unexpired government identification.
Accessibility
All customer areas are wheelchair accessible and the venue has an accessible gender-neutral restroom. Most shows are standing, with limited fixed-location ADA stools; for sold-out events, email info@songbyrddc.com in advance so staff can reserve a workable arrangement.
