Magic Castles

Magic Castles

Magic Castles are a neo-psychedelic band from Minneapolis MN, formed in the late 2000s by multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Jason Edmonds. Their music is characterized by lush, layered arrangements and warm vocal harmonies. Utilizing an arsenal of vintage amps, guitars and farfisa organs, their style draws from folk-rock influences of the late 60s, while also incorporating elements of shoegaze and modern indie rock. Their song "Ballad of the Golden Bird" caught the attention of Anton Newcombe of the Brian Jonestown Massacre and led to their signing with A Recordings Ltd, culminating in four albums from 2012-2022

Magic Castles single, "Lost Dimension", from the 2021 album, "Sun Reign" was featured in an episode of the hit HBO series Succession (s 3 ep 7) 

After touring Europe in 2023, Jason has been hard at work finishing 12 new songs that were recorded with the band at the legendary Pachyderm Studios in Minnesota. The 2LP is scheduled for release March 2026 on Fuzz Club Records

Pete International Airport

Pete International Airport

Pete International Airport is the brain child of Peter G. Holmström. Its name is borrowed from a song title by his other band, The Dandy Warhols. Pete International Airport's third album, It Felt Like the End of the World, is a triumph of process and vision. The eclectic project nails the elusive aesthetic of unexpected yet inviting sound.

Flavor Crystals

Flavor Crystals

Flavor Crystals are a Minneapolis guitar band creating head music of the highest order . Josh Richardson on guitar/vocals, Nat Stensland on bass VI, Vince Caro on guitar, Jon Menke on drums, together create a unique brand of psychedelia that is minimal and spontaneous at its core, producing a steady flow of ethereal songs, mind bending albums and inspired live performances.

Gone Six was released on the mpls ltd label on 11/15/24. The band converged at Pachyderm Studios to create the album, capturing their hypnotic group chemistry with clarity and purpose. Shaped by sudden losses, surprise findings, unwanted fires, new hearts; glued together with musical trust. Gone Six is a cohesive collection of focused songs, presented with wide range vision, set in an expansive sonic landscape. Recorded with Nick Tveitbakk and mastered by Alex Wharton at Abbey Road.

Prior to Gone Six , Flavor Crystals have released five highly regarded albums, On Plastic (2005), Ambergris (2007), the triple LP Three (2012), Shiver of the Flavor Crystals (2015) and Five (2020). Flavor Crystals also created Foam Giant , an ongoing studio collaboration featuring the Telescopes (UK), having released two albums, Acetate Parade (2021) and Under the Trees (2022)

Flavor Crystals have performed across the US, Canada, Australia and Europe in support of The Brian Jonestown Massacre (2008) and at festivals such as Levitation/Austin Psych Fest (2014 and 2016), Reverence Valada Portugal (2015), Psycho Las Vegas (2016 and 2021), Synesthesie II Berlin (2015), Liverpool International Festival of Psychedelia (2015) and the Sydney/Melbourne Psych Fests (2018) .

Pink Breath of Heaven

Pink Breath of Heaven

Pink Breath of Heaven is the visionary project of Liv Field and Rex John Shelverton (Tamaryn), blending shimmering guitars, haunting melodies, and introspective lyricism. Their sound merges the lush textures of shoegaze with the boundless energy of psychedelia, crafting immersive landscapes where color and emotion collide. Following the breakout success of Blue Is the Morning, they have performed alongside The Dandy Warhols, LSD and the Search for God, Alison's Halo, and Ulrika Spacek, becoming a force in San Francisco's psych-rock underground. Their debut album, Colors Make a Sound, distills this intensity into a cohesive work that cements the band as a singular voice in contemporary psych and shoegaze.

About Mission Theater

Experience a slice of Portland history. What is now known simply as “the Mission” was originally home to the Swedish Mission Covenant congregation in the early 20th century, and despite its staid, buttoned up appearance, this place now hosts live music, video dance nights and special events on select nights each month.

Frequently Asked Questions

I have questions about your box office and ticketing … where do I find that info?
Scroll up and check out our Box Office info! If you can’t find the information you’re looking for, you might find your answer below, and if not then feel free to shoot us an email.

What seating is available?
The Mission Theater specializes in open-floor shows, but also has a mezzanine on three sides with seating throughout. Occasionally the main floor will feature seating as well, and we will indicate this by referring to the event as a “seated event.”

The mezzanine sounds cool! Can I reserve seats there? 
No, our seats are all first-come, first-served. 
 
I don’t like to buy tickets online; where can I buy in person at the Mission? 
The Mission does not have its own outlet, but tickets for Mission shows (and any McMenamins music events) are available at the location described above in the Box Office section. 
 
Help, I can’t find my tickets! Can you resend/email them to me?
Even better, just go to and provide your email address as well as the last 4 digits of the card used for purchase. A ticket confirmation will be sent to you.
 
I have a printed at home ticket … can you just scan the original email from my phone? 
We’re able to scan ticket barcodes from most phones…. Make sure your brightness is turned up for best results! If that doesn’t work we will be able to enter your ticket’s order number into the system and get you into the show that way. 
 
I can’t make the show; can I get a refund? 
We are not able to offer refunds. If you opted to purchase insurance through our ticketing company as part of your ticket purchase, you should have received an email from Allianz Global  Assistance and you can file a claim with them directly. You are also welcome to sell your tickets.

Someone sold two tickets to me for tomorrow's show. When I arrive at the venue, will there be any issues since I wasn't the original buyer? 
We are unable to determine the validity of third party tickets. Also, a ticket may be scanned only once for entry. If your ticket was purchased from someone who sold the tickets to multiple parties, only the first person who shows up will be granted entry. 

Are there still tickets / VIP tickets to a show?
You can check this by finding the show on the Mission Theater online calendar and clicking the ticket link, where availability information will be displayed. 
 
I couldn’t get a ticket for a sold-out show. Is there any way I can get one?
The best we can say is that sometimes the artist or promoter will release some tickets that they’ve been holding onto. We can’t predict, however, if or when that might happen. 
 
How do you accommodate for ADA?
For ADA accommodations please contact us by email. Please note we are only able to accommodate until the ADA section is at capacity.

I understand there are stairs leading into the Mission’s main floor. Do you have accessibility options? 
Yes, we are wheelchair accessible. We have a ramp leading to our side entrance on 17th Avenue; just let security at the front door know you need ramp access. 
 
Can I bring my camera to a show? 
While we don’t have specific house policy, we do enforce the band’s policies, and we don’t typically know those policies until the day of the show. Usually only phones or small handheld cameras are allowed, but all attendees are subject to the stipulations from the band. Professional camera gear is almost never permitted. 
 
Are Light Gloves allowed?
Yes.

 Is there a coat check?
There is no coat check at the Mission Theater. 
 
What’s your re-entry policy?
Due to a variety of factors in play for each performance, re-entry policy is determined on the day of the show, and we can’t guarantee that re-entry will be permitted. Please see our House Rules (above) for additional important entry-based information.
 
I’m interested in performing at your venue; who can I contact?
You can email booking@mcmenamins.com.
 
I want to work at the Mission Theater! 
We want to hear from you! Please check out our employment page and apply there!
 
I want to hold a private event in that glorious space!
Please visit our private event page for details! We have a dedicated staffer that can help with weddings, meetings, parties, you name it!
 
What is the venue capacity?
300 standing, 200 seated
 
Do you have air conditioning?
We do indeed have air conditioning, but there’s a LOT of air in the room and it can be tricky to keep the space cool. We set up water stations at our shows, and you are permitted to bring your own empty water bottle to fill there so you can stay hydrated. 
 
How do I get my McMenamins passport stamped?
Mission Theater stamps are only provided at the bar in the venue, and you must attend an event in order to receive one! If there’s no show or a show is sold out then you’re out of luck for that night, so plan ahead and pick a show from our fine selection of upcoming events! Another option is to wait for our occasional open houses or other free events, as we issue stamps for those events as well. 

History

The location that serves as one of McMenamins favorite neighborhood theater pubs was the locus of great spiritual zeal beginning in the 1890s. That's when the Swedish Evangelical Mission established its church here....

From a church to a theater-pub to event space, the Mission's history ain't exactly saintly.
