Revolution Live

Amazing sound system! Enjoyed the pit as much as the top floor! Lively venue with that wall to wall bars and enjoy yourself vibe!

Saw Boywithuke on his burnout tour and it was awesome! A small venue, standing room only, but every spot you stand is close to the stage. Also a lot of bars throughout so no long lines waiting for drinks! Would definitely return for a future show.

You have to take this place for what it is.... may not have been my typical crowd, but everyone was having a blast and the dj killed it with the ITS A 2000S PARTY! I had a wonderful time AND I went solo. I nearly stayed home. So glad I didn't.

There good amount of parking available, get there with time so once you’re inside you have better chances of picking a good spot. Drinks are at reasonable cost. There’s a vip area where you have to spend at least $250 in drinks. Is super crowded for such a small venue. Good security, and sound quality, great to go with family too. Most importantly be ready to have lots of fun and Rock and Roll! Multiple of international bands come here, good variety!

The Dead South killed it... got there extra early... paid parking on street... stood in line 2 hrs... one of first in ... happy with my tiny elbow rest standing position... drinks way overpriced...

Small music venues are the best. Really cool place. Parking was no problem. Thank you for supporting veterans.

Convenient public parking. Price varies but paid $30 for unlimited time, could have been $25. Inside the place there are three levels for you to enjoy the show: The pit, at stage level or second floor. We stayed at stage level, you can lean on the counter so it was a bit more comfortable. It is not big so you will either way have a good view of the artists. Drinks had a decent price (not big venue prices), overall a good experience.

At Revolution Live music venue in Fort Lauderdale, my husband, his friends, and I had a fantastic time attending the Dead South concert, which also showcased the talented lady singer Sunny War. The band concluded its set with an energetic performance, clearly enthused by the audience's presence.

Still a great spot for live music Been coming here for years for concerts & events & this place still provides. Easy ticket purchase, entry and admission. Great drinks & atmosphere. It's a live concert venue - small food booth outside but a few bars available to supply you during the shows. 2 floors - standing room only & lowered area in front of 1 main stage for viewing and or mosh pit ( depending- lol)

was SOOOO packed this time. went to party101 w friends and there was absolutely nooooo room on the first floor!! we can't be too mad about it since we came late and people always go crazy when it's a celebrity but still i've never seen so many people here. was fun but it is always SO hot in here they def need to do something about it like it's insane.

Don't park in their lot! Even though I paid $25 to park (I have sent them the receipt), their parking authority "Professional Parking Management" continues to threaten to send me to a collection agency if I don't pay $125.

Lawrence ~ Family Business Tour ~ get into it This is my first time going to Revolution live for a concert. I've been there for several other events and pop-ups, but this was on unbelievable. I didn't think that the acoustics will be so amazing. It was so queen and beautiful and the lighting was fabulous. I love the fact that you can see everything from the balconies, which give you a birds iview and it's awesome. It was a completely packed house. I feel like they must have sold out the show because it was completely fall. The bars were completely accessible and there was really a bar anywhere you want so it was great to be able to grab your drink because it was so fire and we were so pumped up that it was hot so I was drinking water like a camel in the desert so it was nice to have free access to all the bars. The entire place was completely easy to maneuver and move around. I love the fact that there were bathrooms upstairs and downstairs so you didn't have to go up and down to go to the bathroom that was a huge plus specially in a jam packed space. I thought that it was gonna be too loud too much for a concert there but this completely changed my mind and I will definitely be looking at future concerts to attend.

We went here for a concert with my teenager , wasn't sure what to expect especially being downtown, didn't know if we should be worried bringing my teen there . But it was such a cool vibe ! The music was great! The crowd was so much fun! They even lifted my son up in the crowd for a wave ! Everyone was having a great time and the bartenders are super nice and accommodating. My son had the food truck outside and enjoyed the quesadillas so that was a plus for a Hungary kid I would definitely give this place a chance if you like music in a small venue

10/3/2023- Came to see Teddy Swims and they definitely over sold tickets. Concert was at Backyard and there were so many people inside Revolution watching the concert from a crappy monitor including my friend and I. The bartenders didn't move from the register to help patrons, so there were huge lines. On a positive note, The staff was helpful and friendly. They had plenty of security and the bathrooms were clean.

My daughter and I had a blast here watching Alice in chains tribute band and also Nirvanna the tribute band for Nirvana. Staff were friendly and security was tight. Despite it being quite wild night due to the music genre we felt safe. The acoustics are on point. Plenty of parking, plenty of bars. I will be back!

We have had a great time at every event that we have been to at this venue. Revolution Live is located centrally in the happening area of Fort Lauderdale. If you're up a short walk you can get there on food from Las Olas, Riverwalk Area, or Esplanade Park. There are bars and restaurant all throughout the nearby streets so if you're coming for an event and need a bite ahead of time you'll have plenty of options! We have been to Revolution live for everything from craft and art shows to music festivals. The venue is intimate and uniquely built in my opinion. There is an upstairs balcony area if you don't enjoy standing in the pit and prefer an aerial view! The sound quality is great throughout the venue. They host some great musics acts, cover bands, and even dance party nights. The bar has fun cocktails in tap as well as a great beer selection. The bartenders have always been very on top of it and quick when we have been there for a show. We have also been for large craft and art shows. For these events they have utilized outdoor area as well as inside of the venue, with various vendors all over the premise. I highly suggest checking out their events calendar and if you see anything that sparks your interest, go!

Revolution is, plain and simple, a magnificent venue. It's intimate yet not claustrophobic; the sense of proximity to the talent on stage makes you feel like it's a personal concert. The set up is great. Lines don't feel long, and it's not hard to access. When you walk in you're immediately greeted by a towering bar filled with all the types of delicious drinks and liquor you may want to get the party started. And once it starts, it never stops. Since Revolution is located in River front and is connected to America's Backyard, concerts extent way past closing and bleed into the streets of Downtown Fort Lauderdale. The show we went to see was a Nirvana/Linkin Park Tribute Band led by Elijah Mitchell. They were amazing. The atmosphere was electric and the crowd, as expected, was insanely fun! They lost themselves into every song. All and all, Revolution is the place for concerts in Fort Lauderdale. If you ever have a chance to go, don't think it twice. It's a going to be a magnificent time!

Revolution live is one of those venues I feel like everyone you talk to about, knows. It could be for the better or for the worse but I definitely think it depends on why you're there and who you're there for. When it's a relatively calm band, the crowd and pit area, which is general admission as is the entire venue, can be nice and relaxing. However if it's a metal band or heavier band, if you're not ready for moshing and pits, the pit area will be chaos and agony for you. I for one tolerate this venue because the bands I listen to tour here relatively often however the staff always seems to be bothered to be working here and are always short tempered when it comes to their security with even the smallest things. The prices for tickets are always good and if you get them the day of the show they area few more dollars. The air conditioner always seems to end up off or running less by the end of the night and it gets very warm very easily here. I also am not a fan with how many people they claim is the capacity because it always feels like we're jammed in their like sardines. They have a second floor but if you don't have bottle service it fills up along the barricade insanely fast and you won't be able to see much. Overall a nice little venue but for me the cons outweigh the pros. Especially when it comes to drink prices here, even if it's just water or soda!

I came For the Black Market Horror Fest which has been happening for a few years now. You have to buy tickets for this event. It's on the gothic side. Your ticket gets you access to a haunted house, live music, vendors, and more. I actually was looking forward to the haunted house. The parking was street parking. Some places had a flat rate. I saw a few garages but they were a little farther down. I came around eleven and it was starting to get crowded. I was glad I found a space. As you get into Revolution Live they do a bag check. I came across a big creepy security guard. At first, I thought it was part of the act but later on realized it wasn't. I thank the other security guy for saving the day. Towards the entrance, they had tables with vendors, many vendors. Inside Revolution Live they had a concert going. It sounded great. So many people having a great time. The haunted house was on the second level. That second level was a good safe place to watch the mash pit. The haunted house was not what I hoped for. I was disappointed. The event was cool and different. I enjoyed it. The staff was friendly and the place fun

My friends and I had a great time watching The Ordinary Boys and Love Song tribute bands. The staff was great and very friendly. Their Marketing Manager, Jade, is the best and thankful she alerts me to great shows. The venue provides 3 different levels for viewing the bands, which is awesome. You do have to go up a level or two for the bathrooms, but that is probably the only downside I found that night. Aside from concerts, there are other venues attached, which make for a fun time. Drinks are priced a bit higher, but on par for the area, and not as high as some venues. I like that they are also the location for the Indie Craft Bazaar. Revolution has been renamed and slightly revamped over the years, but I am just happy it is still surviving. I look forward future events!

I have been here several times and never wrote a review till now. The place is pretty decent for what you're paying to do there. We went to a concert for a cover band of KISS. It's was ok. I would have rather seen the real band though. The venue doesn't serve food but they have whatever you would want to drink. The bartenders are efficient I would recommend anyone to go there but I warn you that there's no sitting area and be prepared to sweat like crazy.

I am so impressed with this venue. Polo and his staff made my experience!! My siadic nerve was bothering me so I asked if I could sit in a chair rather than standing in the pit. Polo allowed me and one guest to enjoy the concert without me standing in pain. Revolution Live is the perfect venue to see any artist, I am very impressed!!

The VIP lounge is incredible. The service was incredible and the sound in the venue is top notch. I've never seen a band here that I didn't like. Thank you for a great night.

This is my first punk rock concert, standing room only, and I'm 50. So take that into consideration, lol! I LOVED that the concert was held outside. I can't imagine being inside standing with 1,100 other people. The food trucks right outside of the venue were great. Security was on point but not overbearing. All the concert goers, although squished like sardines, were considerate and polite when having to cut through etc. There was some slam dancing that began towards the back of the crowd but it was quickly shut down. There just wasn't any room for that towards the back. We saw Social Distortion and Bad Religion. Both performances were amazing. The sound and lights were great. Now...will I be back for another concert, probably not. My body found it hard to take the standing in one place for so many hours. We would only do this for Social Distortion. But, if you can take it, the energy was awesome and a great experience.

We came for a Saved by the 90s event, and the band was great. It was not so overly crowded, which would have made it less enjoyable for me. According to other reviews, it really depends on the band you come to see because it sounds like they oversell tickets. There is really nothing special about this place, other than the fact that it's a medium sized concert venue, which gives you a good view of the stage from wherever you are. The staff is not particularly helpful nor friendly, and the venue is a little dirty. Overall, I would come back for specific concerts, but I would definitely want to arrive early for a popular band.

What a horrible venue especially if it's someone you've wanted to see. Went to see Teddy Swims tonight and honestly his vocals deserved a much better venue. Especially when paying almost $200 for tickets and the views were horrible from all vantage points . You go to the upper level and view is blocked too. Unless you're over 6ft good luck seeing anything at this crappy venue. It was so bad that towards the second half of the show people were leaving because it was over sold and the venue isn't supposed to be for that. Lets get to the bartender on the second floor- man he was soo loud with complete disregard that there was a talented performer on stage but he wanted to obnoxiously loud that people next to us said that he was bothering them too. Lets get to the sound here- you would think that even if you can't see then at least the sound would make up for it but guess again NOPE! Seriously i shouldn't hear the cross talking next to me louder than the artist. This place does not need to be open at all.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. We came for a bachelorette party per the brides request. 4 of us got there earlier than the bride and we got charged a cover ($25 per person) so we paid $100 to enter this DEAD club with literally no people in the building. When the rest of our group got there we asked if they were charged a cover and they said no. We clarified that they paid $0 to enter the same establishment that we paid $100 total to enter. Secondly, we asked for mich ultra at the bar which the "bar tender" said they did not have but the person beside us ordered Mich ultra and received with no problem (from the same "bar tender") when asked about it, the "bar tender" said oh maybe we do have it?? She then got us the Mich ultra. LASTLY, we asked the bouncer upon leaving what the policy was for charging and explained that we got charged and no one else did in our group, the bouncer explained that "it's up to the staffs discretion and they choose who pays and who doesn't pay and what the price is" which is absolutely disgusting. Such a place full of discrimination and just gross poor management. Will 10000% never go back and will not recommend to anyone.

The staff was a little rude and aggressive. I ended up here for an event with an artist I liked. However, they were 1 hour behind the time the doors were to open but online did mention that, so I was expecting that to be the case, and it was. It was tiny and hot inside as it was outside. They had to turn on a fan, and the bartender wasn't the most amicable overall. The artist's performance and everything was outstanding. The venue is not so much I didn't see any food other than chips

Excellent venue for indoor / outdoor concerts. Saw Soja last night - although it was likely a sold out show, it didn't feel cramped. Sound was on point for all performers. More than ample adult bev concessions. We watched the main act from the inside large screen stage. Definitely follow this venue for a wide variety of genres. Advice for parking or travel to this jam; there's a Brightline train station across the street if you opt to take in lieu of driving. Also parking around the station for reasonable price

One of the best small venues in south Florida. Trying to keep the metal scene alive and moshing.

Love this venue. The acoustics are great, the layout offers you a view of the stage no matter where you are in the building, and the bartenders are nice. The only awful thing is they do not give you much time to use the restroom once the show ends. I was refused access to the bathroom and couldnt find anywhere quick to go in downtown fort lauderdale before beginning my hike back home (i dont live close by).

Came to the Bad Religion/Social D show last night. Paid for VIP, what a scam! The VIP "viewing area" was basically underneath the elevated "super VIP area." Couldn't see a damn thing. To get into "super VIP" it supposedly cost $250 more per two people! Insane. The bar in the VIP area had only two bartenders so it took about 25 mins to get a beer. The worst show I have ever experienced.

This place is a dump. Show time anmounced as being 7pm for Livingston, no mention of a cover band but there was one and Livingston did not emerge until 9pm. The sound was horrific. Horrid vibration that distorded and overtook the singing.

Honestly the best local venue to see a show. Great vantage points everywhere. Crowds are high energy, and the sound system is amazing. Bar staff and management are damn good!

I've lost count how many concerts I've been to at this venue, especially when I was living in south Florida. Revolution Live is a staple venue of south Florida, and is the right size for any show! Anywhere you stand is a great view of the stage.

Incredible experience booking VIP with Talusha. From start to finish the entire process was seamless thanks to her hospitality and professionalism. Throughout the evening she made sure we were happy and we were; thanks to her. Highly recommend enjoying a show at this awesome venue!

The venue is fairly small so if you want to be up close, you better get there early. There is a main pit in front of the stage surrounded by an elevated standing area with a bar in back and on the left hand side. there is also an upstairs which wraps around the whole venue and is open to the middle. This allows viewers to see things from above, as well as from the side and behind the stage. This is a really cool venue and the tribute bands even have major attendance. I have always had fun at this venue and recommend keeping an eye out for music coming through.

Came here to see Falseta do their thing. Really great show. But we're reviewing the venue here, so here it is. Parking around this area is about $15. To get in, we flowed through Stache (a bar). Love the grungy decor and lighting. The bathrooms were clean and there weren't long lines to use them. The venue is intimate with maybe 100 people fitting in the lower pit area, another 100 can stand around in the level parallel to the stage, and another maybe 50 on the balcony area. The only seats available were the VIP sections which are pretty small (made up of about 4 tables on either side of the stage). So you're standing for the entire performance. I liked this venue a lot. I like that it's intimate enough to be able to meet the performers. :)

Revolution Live is a great venue, but you have to be prepared to get down and dirty. The staff is very nice and helpful overall making the vibe good from the moment you step in. I appreciate that there's drink specials and any alcohol of your choice with price ranges to suite whether you want to be more frugal or are ready to spend a bit more. It is a more intimate venue with multiple levels from the pit to a mezzanine. It can get really cramped and the bathrooms get disgusting. So like I said, be ready. Other than that, it can be a really great time! I enjoyed the black market event I went to and they had vendors outside the venue, musical acts in the main stage, and drag performances in the back bar.

Seen JVKE here in August with my kids. It was so hot and miserable and overpacked. Honestly we couldn't see anything and everyone was pushing and it was so stressful. I found it a little unsafe for a show that had so many kids attending to be so cramped and oversold. I may try this venue again and try to get there super early to get a good spot and most definitely won't be bringing my kids here again.

Although the staff was very nice, there is no where to sit for 4 hours, nor a table to put your drinks on. Drink prices were reasonable. Unfortunately the private company, "Profession Parking Management " who patrols the parking lot will give any excuse to give you a parking "violation!" No wonder they have an "F" rating with BBB as well as bern under scrutiny with Broward County and various TV news stations. I will not be attending any future shows there.

Unsafe environment. The security team physically assaults people for NO reason. This one bouncer basically pushed my friend down a staircase last night. He could've broke his neck or worse. Definitely not somewhere I would EVER recommend or bring people to again. Will do anything in my power to persuade others to go anywhere else but here. The same security guy was pushing others around, screaming in peoples faces and just overall getting out of hand because people were in an area that was bottle service only. Absolutely insane. I've seen them oversell concerts multiple times and disregard the safety conditions. Max capacity means nothing to them. I've seen people faint and security do nothing. Spend your money and time anywhere but here.

Jeffrey is the best manager ever when there was a promo no one would redeem for us he brought us directly over and gave us the free shot he's amazing if there's any issues with your time here ask for Jeffery the general manager!

OM666 WTF do I even start with this roached out garbage dump? The staff are rude af, even by South FloriDUH standards, which is saying A LOT. The Social Distortion show in 2004 was a genuine nightmare. I'm still flummoxed as to why the staff took down the tent over the soundboard when a thunderstorm is obviously minutes away. While the soundboard blowing up was poetic justice for their supreme idocy, it was completely unnecessary & certainly not the only example of jackassery there. BTW, if your moshed at the mostly ACOUSTIC Porno For Pyros show in 1996, die in a fire please. In closing, a gigantic FOOK U for Skinny Puppy having to cancel thanks to a leaky roof, on their farewell tour, and it's no surprise they didn't reschedule. They rescheduled every other show BUT Ft. Lauderdale, gee go figure. Only in South FloriDUH can an INDOOR show be rained out; you'd think people in the concert venue industrial complex down here would have learned that lesson from the Robert Plant show in JULY OF 1985!!! But no "Duuuh, I wear helmet!" At least HE rescheduled the show. Such a wreched dive like this doesn't deserve to exist. They MUST be paying off the city, cuz seriously the building needs to be condemned and demolished ASAP.

I went to see Nahko & The Medicine People. Stellar performance. The venue itself has been around so long & they have done such great renovation over the years. They need to touch up on the sound a bit but other than that, it was AMAZING! The overall level of service could be spiced up a little bit & the prices were per decent. Thank you Revolution & Nahko & The Medicine People. I do wish that Nahko & his Team replied a bit more to their social media profiles but I guess I understand why they might not. Hope to see you in Vegas when I'm back in a week.

I went last night to see Asking Alexandria. We had an issue with our tickets. When we asked for help the woman that came over basically brushed us off and said sorry guys it's a sold out show can't help. We eventually made it in. She was condescending, lacked professionalism, and lazy. The moment she walked out you can tell she was annoyed. She also lied to us. This show was definitely OVER SOLD. It began in the afternoon. They had people packed like sardines with none of the fans off. I saw more than 10 people be carried out because of the heat. It is not the first time I attend a show at revolution that the AC is not working. Even their fans were off. Do better especially for your clients that come to have a good time.

This place has been around since before I was of legal drinking age. I remember dining there when it was Lagniappe Cajun House, (now that was a cool place! ). Then I was there when it was Backstreet, Chili Pepper, and America's Backyard. It's been Revolution Live for quite a few years now; but I don't think the owners have put much money into renovations or decor. On the plus side- its very easy to get to, (right on Broward Blvd. in downtown Fort Lauderdale,) there is ample parking, it's relatively quick to get a drink, and there is a large stage with decent acoustics. Some of the drawbacks: the inside looks kind of like a dungeon, it is standing room only, and if you want to get close to the stage; you better like thrashing. around in a mosh pit. It was also $8 for a domestic beer; no real bargain. I realize Revolution Live gets tribute bands, (we were there to see Nirvanna a tribute to Nirvana, and Audioecho a tribute to Audioslave,) up & coming local bands, and bands who haven't had a hit in the past decade, but I'd much prefer to see these shows at a club with actual seating, on the beach, or some other open-air venue where you can at least sit if you want to.

Loud obnoxious immature security out front yelling at customers trying to simply get in. Security pushing people around when they're trying to simply find the bathroom (I found 2 women's bathrooms before the one for men's and then wasn't allowed to use the bathroom I used earlier and was told to use another one) and then got pushed my the bartender for simply leaning on the bar while waiting for the show to start over 2 hours after the doors opened. I left before the show even started. Ridiculous prices for drinks, disgustingly dirty bathrooms. They let too many people in there and clearly go over capacity as legally allowed. I left before even seeing the show I paid for. Oh, and if you park in the parking lot and pay for your parking, the scammers take pics of your car and claim you didn't pay for parking (they send you a letter in the mail. I've done some research on this. It's been going on for years). They fooled me once, they ain't fooling me again. I can't wait to laugh at the "bill" they sned me a month from now. Security even joked about it with me before I parked across the street instead. They don't give 2 F's.

Open again after a long time. 05/22/2021 Bob Marley Tribute band!!! No mask no worries! They had to blow the cob webs out of the gear to things going and they did!! Awesome show. Thank you!

We had a blast junping and singing with Maiden Mania and The Dirtt. Revolution is the best! Looking forward to another great night my family was very happy..

Pros: good size venue for live acts. Plenty of bathrooms, plenty of parking. Cons: I've been here several times for a variety of shows/events, security always makes me feel like I'm a wanted criminal, but I guess that's the world we live in. Also, No wine! Yes, no wine!! Alert alert! No wine! Get ready to liquor or beer it up. This place is also SUPER LOUD, so bring earplugs if you have sensitive ears.

I have been going to this club located at SW 3rd Ave in its many incarnations for the 20 years it has been in existence. First it was The Edge and then The Chili Pepper before finally becoming Revolution Live on September 28, 2004. The current owner is Jeff John who got in with a group of investors who wanted to redevelop the Chili Pepper property. After they ran out of money, John bought out the other investors and took over the project himself which at that time was condemned due to a breaker fire that ended up costing $60,000. Another 3.5 million was needed for plumbing and electrical repairs. In 2005 two hurricanes caused the cancellation of 9 sold out shows making for a rocky start. He has now transformed the property into the live music venue Revolution Live, an outdoor bar, America's Backyard (2008), and a speak easy, Stache (2013). John was able to form a strong relationship with Live Nation which allowed him to bring in top talent. Things started going so well that in 2012 the Tom Cruise movie Rock of Ages filmed here. They have now hosted some of the biggest names in music like Pink, Lady Gaga, and Katy Perry before they broke out as stars. It had been a number of years since I had last been here but when I found out the X Ambassadors were playing such an intimate venue I could not resist coming out even though it was the middle of the work week. The X Ambassadors were on tour in support of their Orion album. Bear Hands was their opening act. Parking is a breeze. They have their own lot which costs $15 for four hours. I could have saved a few bucks by parking across the street at the huge city lot but I decided to make it easy. In any case I saved $10 on my ticket by buying it from the box office instead of Ticketmaster. Once you go through a metal wand search it's time to find out where you want to try and see the show. They have a pit in front of the stage, a first floor with multiple bars and a second floor with a VIP lounge and bathrooms. Unless you are VIP you are going to be standing. Some people like to lean along the railings but I made my way down to the pit and close to the stage where it was crowded but not unbearably so. I give Revolution Live credit for being able to book a band of this caliber. The show was absolutely amazing. The staff at the venue was super nice too. Everyone from the security to the bartenders were polite. The only drawback was that the bar had a $20 minimum for credit cards for drinks. Next time I would bring some cash. The most important thing is that they delivered a concert I will never forget. I would definitely come here again.

Growing up in Florida, I remember going to shows at The Edge and Chili Pepper, now Revolution, in the early 2000s. I haven't been to Revolution in years and it seems like they haven't made many improvements since the place opened. Drinks are overpriced for what the venue is - $25 for a Ketel and soda ($30 with tip). They have a bottle service area on the second floor, which seems out of place considering the state of the venue. It would be nice if they opened the bottle service area for additional standing room. There is a bar on the second floor tucked between the bathrooms that had little traffic and is an ideal spot to grab a drink if the lines downstairs are too long. The second floor walkway to the bathrooms and back bar creaks and feels flimsy to walk across. The place gets packed on the second level, and with people dancing and jumping around, the condition of the floor was making me nervous. The bathrooms are fairly clean and in acceptable condition compared to similar venues, although some of the stalls had broken locks and broken seats. There was a smoking area and bar set up outside, and a grill where they were making burgers and hotdogs. There are railroad ties on the ground to create the perimeter for the smoking, bar, and food area. The ties are not marked and the area is poorly lit, so it was no surprise when I saw a woman trip over one of the ties and fall, almost hitting her head on another tie on the way down. The woman had scrapes and immediately developed bruising on her arm. The venue did not call the paramedics and a few members of the security team ignored patron AND police requests to block the rail tie with a standee so other people wouldn't trip over it. Management needs to have the ends of the rail ties painted so they're clearly visible, especially since the set-up gives the illusion that there is a clear path from the venue door to the outdoor area. The area could also use ashtrays so people aren't littering the ground and planters with cigarette butts. Lastly, the sound in this venue leaves a lot to be desired. The building design requires you to stand in the center of the venue to be able to hear the full scope of the performance which, as other reviewers have pointed out, makes the full experience of the venue inaccessible for people needing accommodations. The main floor is also relatively small for the crowds that the venue brings in, which makes for a poor experience overall. The venue became incredibly humid halfway through the show, which was concerning given Covid is still making its rounds. Overall, I would not go back to Revolution unless it was renovated to include improvements for safety and compliance, accessibility for folks who require accommodations, and a reconfigured layout to improve the acoustics and promote a better listening experience. Thank you for having me and best of luck.

Like I saw in the 2012 film Rock Of ages I never thought I would see it to experience what it was like watching Live Performance until I saw my cousin shred on his guitar with his band

Friendly staff. Great service. Fun place to watch a show with several different levels and the sound was great.

I like Revolution. I know a lot of my friends don't, but I've never had an issue there. The only issue I've really had is my internal issue- being the tallest person at the venue and wanting to be in the front row. I'm sorry I love live music as much as the person who is 5ft tall, but sometimes I like to be in front. *Steps off soapbox and begins review*. Ok, so the first great things about Revolution is that they have their own box office which is open I believe six days a week. Do not, if you can help it, order from Ticketmaster. You typically save 30%-40% due to the excessive fees charged by Ticketmaster. Give your money to the local guy. The venue itself is pretty small, but can pack a lot of people inside of it. There is a pit along with two sort of balcony -ish viewing areas (it's really a railing, but I'm trying to paint a pretty picture). There's also a VIP area which I really need to start looking into. I've had friends tell me they hate the sound there- I've never experienced this or if I did, I didn't realize I was experiencing it. The club has multiple bars. Heads up- minimum credit card purchase is $20 which may seem like a lot, but a drink is $9 and is probably the smallest cup you've ever seen. The venue also connects to 'Stache. Just pointing that out- not really sure if that's a good or bad thing, but it does. I do wish the staff (read: security) handled the venue better. People standing on the stairs is a fire hazard. They tell them politely to move and they do- until the security guard leaves and they resume. For the last show I was at I will say my anxiety did get the best of me because standing near those steps and the amount of people being squished into that area, coupled with the people on the stairs did take me out of the moment and put me into the mindset of "if something happened we'd all be dead". Not the thing I should be thinking during a concert. What I've realized with places like this is that if you want to really enjoy your concert experience you've got to suck it up and get in line early. I don't think it's feasible or reasonable for someone to expect to come to a show at 8:30pm and be happy with where they're standing (being over 6ft or not). You gotta just do it. Come early. Get in line. Meet some like-minded people and go get the spot you want. At the end of the day you've paid money for that ticket so get the most of it and make sure you head to the exit right before the show officially ends so that you don't get stuck in the crowd of people trying to all exit at once.

I have to admit, I was nervous pushing 40 and going to Revolution Live to see the Dropkick Murphys. It's been years since I've done a small venue (2009 Starland Ballroom to see Mudvayne in Sayreville, NJ!!!). I was pleasantly surprised. It's been gone over in reviews: drinks are pricey but it's South Florida. Won't cover that! Pulled up in an Uber as doors opened 10 mins after we arrived. WOW! Parking available next to the venue. Super rad. Getting in was a breeze too. Once in it was mildly confusing. Turn right and you'll find the floor. Go up the stairs and we'll, you're upstairs! That's where I stayed. Great view. Bathrooms had attendants with mints, cologne, candy, etc. upstairs there were tons of urinals and stalls for dudes. The one I saw downstairs only a few. There was a taco guy outside the doors and for $3/taco, they were amazing. There was a little chill area near the downstairs bar that was cool to get away. Bottom line: sold out show and I was comfortable. Had a great time. Felt safe. Great view. Brought me back to my 20s! I'll definitely go back!
