The NorVa is a performing venue located in Norfolk, Virginia. The NorVa's name consists of an abbreviation relating to its location.

The NorVa was the brainchild of local music venue entrepreneurs Bill Reid and Rick Mersel, who have also developed the NTelos Wireless Pavilion and have ties to the development of Farm Bureau Live at Virginia Beach.^[2] In 2014, the NorVa was acquired by Anschutz Entertainment Group.^[3]

The original NorVa Theater opened in 1922^[4] as a 2000-seat motion picture and live entertainment (vaudeville) theater. It continued to thrive as a premier movie theater into the 1970s. The building served as home to the Downtown Athletic Club from 1980 until 1998 when it was renovated for its current use. The building is often noted by its patrons to be charming and aesthetically pleasing due to its rustic and old-style appearance. The NorVa features top-notch acoustics,^[2] acoustics provided by a state-of-the-art V-DOSC sound system and engineered acoustical padding throughout the walls. The NorVa's stage area also features extensive utilities and lighting for special effects. ^{[citation needed]}
