I'm looking for some teen-friendly venues for music we can attend as a family - live music or dancing. My daughers are 16 and 19 and wouldn't be drinking. We just need to find a place they will be allowed in the door. Does anybody know how this works, or have any suggestions for Durham or Raleigh? IWe are planning a family outing during the college Christmas Break.
The only place I've ever seen teens dancing to live music at the same time and same place with their parents is at weddings.
Maybe rollerskating or ice skating?
