Live-music venues worth the trip in Cape Girardeau, Missouri

Southeast Missouri State University’s arena calls itself the region’s ultimate destination for entertainment, energy, and connection on its own site, seating over 7,000 and mixing national touring concerts with SEMO Redhawks basketball, graduations, and expos.

Scout Hall is a downtown Cape Girardeau mixed-use venue that calls itself the area’s premier destination for concerts, private parties, and weekly events, with a calendar its own site shows mixing touring acts with local performers and community events.
