Moods

Moods is a jazz-oriented music venue and cocktail bar at Schiffbauplatz in Zurich. Set in a former factory, it combines live music with a bar setting and functions as a concert hall, auditorium, dance hall and event venue. The programme presents local and international acts, making the venue suitable for audiences interested in jazz, live performance and music events.

The venue’s identity centres on live music rather than a restaurant concept. Concerts and other events share space with a drinks-focused bar offering beer, wine and cocktails. Dine-in service is also available, although the venue is primarily defined by its music programme and event setting. The combination gives Moods a format that works for an evening built around a performance as well as for drinks in a music-led environment.

The former factory setting provides a distinctive backdrop without changing the venue’s practical role as a performance and gathering space. Its categories include live music venue, concert hall, auditorium, dance hall and event venue, reflecting a flexible layout and varied use. Programming is centred on local and international acts, with jazz as the defining musical orientation.

Moods suits concertgoers looking for jazz-oriented live music, as well as groups meeting for cocktails, wine or beer in a venue connected to the local music scene. The listing identifies it as good for groups, and the combination of dine-in service, drinks and performances supports both social visits and event-focused evenings. The price level is moderate.

Located at Schiffbauplatz, Moods is part of Zurich’s 8005 area. The address places the venue in a former industrial setting, while its programming keeps the focus on live performance. A visit can therefore centre on a concert, a drink at the bar or a group gathering linked to an event.
