Bjork at United Palace Theatre


Hearing that Bjork is coming to town may not be incredibly exciting for the average New Yorker. She's played here several times, so what makes this time so different? The answer is simple. Instead of performing at a traditional commercial venue such as Madison Square Garden or Nokia Theatre in Times Square, she will be taking the stage at the historic United Palace Theatre.

Located on Broadway at 175th St, United Palace opened in 1930 and started out showing films and vaudeville shows. It was purchased by Christ United Church in 1969 and has hosted mostly religious events since then. Viewing such a theatrical performer in such a dramatic venue will be a historic event in itself.
Bjork will be performing live at the United Palace Theatre May 5th.
