The Concordia Club, incorporated May 1, 1886 as the Concordia Society or the Concordia Beneficial Society is a social club which also originally provided a funeral benefit to members.

It was originally made up of families of German ancestry. The club's founding officers were president Henry Behrens, vice president Theodore Biggers, secretary Brennen, and treasurer Louis Bonde.

In later years the club has been most active in hosting ballroom dance events. The club's Concordia Banquet Hall & Dance Club at 3400 1st Avenue North near Sloss Furnaces is also rented out for private events.
