  • If you have not performed at Hop Yard 62 before, we may ask that you only book one initial performance until after your first gig.

  • Please TALK with KEVIN before booking consecutive gigs month after month.  We have a number of musicians that like to play at HY62 and we try to accommodate as many as possible.

  • We have a number of solo or duets that play acoustic, which works very well at Hop Yard 62, but we ask that you NOT only just play music from the 1960’s and 1970’s. Please play a variety of decades to include most of our guests.

  • We would like musicians to play from 7-10PM. Please come in early enough to set up before your start time. .

  • Our space is small. We can only accommodate a one- or two-person band.

  • If you have to cancel less than 72 hours before you perform, please find a replacement for your gig.

  • Pay: $100 per gig and $25 bar tab.

Private Events

We’d love to host your event! Our space can accommodate up to 50 people inside and another 20 to 25 on the patio.

Whether you’re planning a birthday party, corporate mixer or holiday office party, Hop Yard 62 offers a special environment in historic Town Center, Grove City, OH. Our vintage inspired industrial space is a great alternative to more traditional rental spaces and is the perfect reflection of the old town feel of our downtown neighborhood.

The building itself was built before World War I and at one time stored old fire trucks for the volunteer fire department. It was also a Studebaker and Regal car sales room and eventually became Bethard’s Garage in 1932. The current owners removed the old floor to expose the original concrete. It’s a very cool space.

Hop Yard 62 can host events Monday through Sunday** Anytime. Prices will vary based on times being asked for: Except in rare instances, we are unable to host private events on Friday or Saturday evenings..

You will park on the sidewalk just beside our location, near the gazebo and between two city light posts. You will have approximately 28 feet with which to work. Please see the PARKING DETAILS FOR TRUCK PLACEMENT diagrams detailing where your truck will be placed. Be aware as you go up on the curb if you have any generators or other items that hang low on the truck. We have an alternative location if that is the case.

We would recommend that you have printed copies of your menu to bring into the bar for our customers to read.

Things to note on the calendar that will appear:

  • We schedule musicians and food trucks only on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. So, if you see a food truck scheduled already please don’t ask for that date. If you are a musician and don’t see an artist listed ask away.

  • We only schedule one music event and food truck per evening.

  • If a date is already marked red (booked) on the calendar, someone has beat you to that date. Don’t select that date! If the booked party cancels on us, we will remove the booking and it will again show as available.

  • If a date is marked yellow (pending), you may still submit your request for that date, but be aware that you already have competition, and we typically schedule on a first come, first serve basis.

  • Musicians play from 7 pm to 10pm at this time. Food trucks serve from 5 pm to 8 pm.
