General Information: The Cypress is located in Midtown, Reno. Paid parking is available close to the venue, with some street accessibility. There is a full service bar, and soon-to-be restaurant.

Ages: Varies. Most events are 21+

Our take on this venue: The Cypress is a great place to catch a show, and they have several free events throughout the week- like dancing classes. The bartenders and events staff are friendly and efficient. The Cypress staffs appropriately for events, and service is quick. Parking is limited, so prepare for a bit of a walk during the weekends or for sold out shows. The restrooms can get a bit slippery, so take care. Lighting is primarily reds/blues and for photographers, there are dark corners. The sound system is great for the space.

Venue information for artists:

Lighting: The Cypress has two light bars, one front and one back. There are dark spots in the corners of the stage that make photography challenging, so stay center focused.

Backstage Area: Shared green-room

Sound System: Impressive sound system, with bass system close to the floor built into the stage, as well as overhead speakers.
