Opened in 1991, with their first show on Valentines Day, Exeter Cavern (or The Cavern Club) is a small venue, located on Queen Street, in the centre of Exeter, Devon, England. Being located not-far-from Teignmouth, it was one of the venues where Muse performed the most, and is perhaps most notorious for being the place where the band started it all. In 1995, Muse also took part in the Battle of the Bands, which took place in The Cavern.[1]

According to Dom, Muse have performed in this club about 32 times (or 33 in total, including the 2022 gig).

In 2016, the club suffered an accidental fire, which destroyed part of the club, with the basement, where the fire started, being severly damaged. Due to the quick actions from both the people and the staff, the club was succesfully refurbished and reopened in May of 2017.[2]
