Who owns and operates The Southern Cafe & Music Hall?
The Southern is one of Starr Hill Presents' three Charlottesville venues, an underground club on the Downtown Mall. Neither its capacity nor its opening year was verified, so both stay empty rather than estimated.
Its current calendar carries Ticketmaster purchase links. The portfolio listing and the ticket channel are recorded as separate relationships; neither establishes who owns the space.

Ticketmaster is a wholly owned subsidiary of Live Nation Entertainment — and has had six controlling owners since 1976. The documented chronology, with sources.
- What Does Live Nation Actually Own? A Company-by-Company Map
Owns, operates, leases, books, tickets: Live Nation's relationships are five different verbs, not one. The 2025 filing quoted exactly, plus the documented record.
- Did All-In Ticket Pricing Actually Lower Ticket Fees?

Promotion, ticketing, venues and sponsorship reinforce each other inside one company. The FY2025 filing shows the mechanism in reported operating scale.
- When Does Scale Become Market Power?
Being large is not an offence. The line is whether scale is used to exclude rivals — and in August 2026 that line sits in a proposed consent judgment, not a verdict.
