About Sunday Spotlight

The Bluebird Cafe's Sunday Spotlight is a weekly showcase for up-and-coming bands, offering a one-hour performance focused on individual acts rather than the traditional in-the-round format. There are 18 tables, 8 bar seats and 8 church pew seats available for reservation. The remaining pew seats for this show are not reserved in advance. These seats are available on a first come/first served basis when doors open.

When making reservations, choose the table you would like and then add the number of seats you need to your cart by using the + button. You are NOT reserving an entire table if you choose 1 (by choosing 1, you are reserving 1 seat). We reserve ALL seats at each table. If you are a smaller party at a larger table, you will be seated with guests outside your party.
