The Cave (pub)

The Cave is a student-led music and entertainment venue, located at Carleton College.

It is a favorite gathering place for students at Carleton College and is one of a limited number of music venues in Northfield, Minnesota.

Founded in 1927, it is the oldest student-run pub in America and is housed on the lowest level of the Margaret Evans residence hall.

[1][2] The Cave has undergone many transformations over the decades: from lounge, to cabaret-style theater, to game room and finally, a music venue.

A Carleton College ID card is usually required for entry, but there are sometimes shows that are open to the public.

The Cave is in the basement of Margaret Evans dormitory at Carleton College in Northfield, MN .
