Bringing the Virgin Mobile Mod Club to Life

The new Virgin Mobile Mod Club at 722 College Street will see a fresh look arriving at the space exactly nine years after the club first opened its doors on November 5, 2002.  From a hot new logo to some cheeky touches inside, the legendary space will be even better than ever.  Virgin Mobile will also sweeten the deal for Virgin Mobile Members with benefits and exclusive access to select shows at the Virgin Mobile Mod Club.  

Some examples of extra bonuses just for Virgin Mobile Members are:

• VIP lines to get into the show without the wait
• Chances to get guest list access or free concert tickets
• Opportunities for discounted or pre-sale tickets
• Exclusive chances to meet the bands
• Members-only areas for the best seats in the house
