A venue is the location for an event. The word venue derives from the Latin for to come, and implies a place that people come to. As such, the term is used about as variously as there are activities to meet together for. Generally venues have a specific purpose, though some, such as large stadiums, may be used for a number of different activities.

Usage of venue includes:

• In the legal world, it is a term used for the jurisdiction of a trial. Proper venue is a requirement for a U.S. court to exercise jurisdiction.
• In the music industry, the term music venue is used to refer to concert sites, especially among touring acts.
• in the entertainment industry, the term refers to the location, or type of location, in which the entertainment is held.
• In sports, the term is sometimes used to refer to the building or stadium in which an event takes place, most ubiquitously in the Olympic games.
