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.
