The Rainbow Room Series

Like its fabled namesake, Thalian Hall’s new Rainbow Room will welcome a line-up of unparalleled performing artists in a candlelit, intimate nightclub setting. Guests will be ushered to comfortable table seating, offered fine wines and great service – and find themselves only feet away from national and international artists who continue the tradition of quality that has made historic Thalian Hall one of the Southeast’s most distinctive live performance venue destinations.
