Symply Fargone Productions Expands to Second Worcester Venue and Beyond

Magic Dick from the J. Geils Band will be at the all-new Club Symply Fargone at Viva Bene.Symply Fargone Productions is getting bigger! The company has announced it is expanding its concert offerings to a second Worcester venue.

Club Symply Fargone at Viva Bene will be a 300+ seat venue with state-of-the-art sound and a nightclub setting which offers a more intimate experience, great food and libation. The company will continue to promote its larger shows at Mechanics Hall in Worcester.

The first show at the new Club Symply Fargone at Viva Bene is Magic Dick of the J. Geils Band and guitar virtuoso Shun Ng on Saturday, September 13 at 8:30PM. The show is just $25 and any dinner item on the Viva Bene menu is just $20 more along with parking if you have a ticket. Just go to www.symplyfargone.com for reserved seats and more information.

“The opportunity to expand our operations into a second venue translates to even more entertainment options in downtown Worcester,” said Glen Gardner, one of the owners of Symply Fargone Productions. “We have had to pass on many great opportunities over the past year because of date conflicts and venue size. This new room will give us the opportunity to greatly expand the number of shows we produce and in most cases continue our tradition of ticket prices lower than the market average.”

Plans for extensive renovations at the new Club Symply Fargone at Viva Bene include eliminating columns and walls to offer unobstructed views. There will be state-of-the-art digital sound, and a permanent stage will be constructed. This new addition will allow variable seating capacity. The renovations are scheduled to be complete by Labor Day.

Symply Fargone Productions is also in negotiations with venues in other markets that are interested in the high-quality level of entertainment the company has been able to assemble for the Worcester market. “Being able to leverage some of these acts across several venues will enable us to keep costs down and attract even more impressive talent to our base in Worcester,” Gardner said.

  • The Jon Pousette-Dart Band, September 5, 8PM
  • Melanie, September 25, 7:30PM
