The Stone Church

A converted 1832 church turned live music venue, The Stone Church is one of New England's most unique spots to catch a show. With great beer, incredible acoustics, and a lineup that punches well above its weight, this is the beating heart of Newmarket's music scene.

"Newmarket is such a cool little mill town. Main Street has great local shops and restaurants, and the Lamprey River trail is a hidden gem. Real community feel."
