The Camel is located at 1621 W. Broad Street, Richmond, VA 23220 — along the Broad Street corridor near Scott’s Addition and downtown Richmond.
Transit: The venue sits on West Broad Street, a primary Richmond corridor served by GRTC bus routes, including the Pulse bus rapid transit line along Broad Street with nearby stops. Transit is a practical option for in-city travel, especially for guests coming from other parts of Richmond.
Driving and Parking: Parking is based on street parking and nearby lots in the Broad Street corridor. The Camel does not have a large dedicated venue lot, so arriving early gives you a better chance at closer street spots on busy show nights.
Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup along West Broad Street is straightforward. After the show, expect some wait time when multiple nearby venues let out around the same time.
Nearby Accommodation: Hotels are available in and around downtown Richmond and the Broad Street / Scott’s Addition vicinity, generally within a short drive or rideshare of the venue.
The Camel has a simple, single-level club layout, so getting oriented is easy once you arrive. The performance room, bar, and standing-room floor are close together, which helps create the venue’s intimate, up-front atmosphere.
Entrances and Access: Guests enter through the street-level entrance off West Broad Street, which leads into the bar and adjoining performance room.
Seating Levels: The Camel uses a single-level club layout with a bar area and an intimate stage/performance room. Shows are generally standing room, with the audience gathered on the floor near the stage.
Getting to Your Section: Navigation is straightforward in a small single-room venue. Once inside, the stage and bar are only a few steps away, with no complex concourse or multi-level seating system to navigate.
The Camel offers a full bar with a large rotating draft selection, advertised at roughly 28 local and craft beers on tap, along with food service. Patrons also note the friendly staff, making it a convenient place to settle in before or during a show without leaving the venue.
The Camel is situated near Scott’s Addition and the broader Broad Street corridor, both of which are dense with restaurants, breweries, and bars within a short distance. That makes it easy to pair a show with drinks or dinner nearby before heading to the venue.
The Camel maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.
Entry Procedures: Guests can expect a digital or physical ticket check at the door. Age checks apply, with Friday and Saturday shows typically 18+, and ID is required for alcohol service. Arriving with tickets ready and your ID accessible helps keep entry moving smoothly.
The Camel is part of Richmond’s active live-events scene, offering an intimate club setting within a metro area that also includes theaters, amphitheatres, music halls, outdoor spaces, and sports venues.
The Camel ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from local and smaller touring shows to higher-demand touring headliners.
For local and smaller touring shows, tickets are often low, roughly in the $10–$20 range. These events are a strong fit for fans looking to discover Richmond-area acts, regional bands, and genre-specific bills in a small-room setting.
For higher-demand touring headliners, tickets typically run around $20–$35 or more. In a room with an approximate capacity of 100–150 guests, artist draw and demand for a specific booking can move prices quickly.
Private party and event bookings are approximately $500–$1,000 per event. Pricing can vary based on the event format, night of the week, and specific booking needs.
For higher-demand bookings in such a small room, buying earlier is advisable because capacity is limited. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, the best remaining options can become harder to find at the lowest prices.

The map lets you compare sections side by side, check row depth and distance from the stage, and see real-time pricing for what's currently available — all before committing to a purchase.
Yes. The interactive seat map on BoxOfficeTicketSales.com shows your exact section and row placement before you buy.
