ABOUT US
CupOJoy began in 1989 as a small coffeehouse in downtown Green Bay. Founded on the belief that music can inspire, heal, and bring people together, we have grown to become one of the premier Music Venues in the Midwest. For over 36 years, we have been providing a safe, family-friendly environment where people of all ages can enjoy live music.
Where do I Park when we come to Cup O Joy Shows?
CupOJoy has a large parking lot, but there is also parking on both sides of Taylor St. Enter the parking lot through the north entrance. All patrons come and go from the north side door by the flag pole.
We want to stay over night in Green Bay…can you recommend a Hotel?
We have several great Hotels that actually offer hotel discounts to
CupOJoy Patrons. Of course if it’s the night before a Packer Game….all deals are off☺
Check out the HOTELS HERE!
Do you sell food at CupOJoy?
We sell snacks: coffee, juices, soda, popcorn, candy, chips, pizza, it's more theater style snacks. We say, eat a little protein before you come and have a snack here at the Cup☺
Note: We ask you respect our policy of No Carry-ins!
Do you take a credit or debit card?
YES
Can you recommend a place close by to eat while we’re waiting for the show?
We have several wonderful places to eat nearby including the 1951West right behind the Cup O Joy and the Narrow Bridge on Shawano Ave.
If we get an Early Entry, are we guaranteed a seat?
An Early Entry Pass (general admission), is to get you in the door a bit early so you can choose the best available seats. The pass costs $6-$15 per person and allows early entry to choose the Best Seats, but will not hold a seat for you. You’ll need to arrive before the doors officially open for the show (so look carefully at the time the doors open).
If you want the saved seat of your choice, get a Reserved seat for $25. You choose your seat online and no need to rush, your seat is saved. See all the info here.
How many people does CupOJoy hold?
It all depends on which venue room we are using and how the furniture is arranged. Cup2 has about 200 seats and Cup3 has 550 seats. Sometimes it's all chairs and sometimes there is no furniture at all and the crowd stands (usually Rock shows).
How can there be no cover charge?
All of the CupOJoy shows are supported through a donation that is taken during the show. The artist and the Cup O Joy are supported through that donation. Quite an amazing thing! Sooooo, it’s really important that everyone comes with the intention of being supportive…that’s what really what makes the whole thing work.

*Once a year CupOJoy hosts a Benefit Concert, this doubles as a celebration of another year in ministry!
