Supernova Seattle

"Great atmosphere, good music, and an energetic crowd! The DJ kept the vibe alive all night, and the drinks were on point. Definitely a fun spot to dance and unwind. Would love to come back!"

Oh man. Where do I start? Entry was $20 per person, first of all. There is no double mirror hallway, there's simply a small closet under the stairs where they stapled weed baggies to the wall. In total there were about 8 girls in there, at most. Quite a few men awkwardly staring at the girls dancing. This was a Friday night and there were maybe 15 customers, and about 10-15 employees all just hanging out. A giant fog machine fills the small club with so much fog that it's hard to breathe, they also have it aimed at head level. One point, the overwhelming smell of Dragon's Blood incense was so strong that I had to step outside. Oh! Also, this is not just a dance clubs. There are pole/stage dancers. One girl was nearly pleasuring herself on video for someone who gave her a couple dollars. Halfway through their themed "90s-00s" night, they started playing modern, mumble rap, on the website it said the themed night went from 10pm-3am, they stopped their theme at midnight. The DJ that was up there was not good. He was basically just playing a Spotify playlist with overlap of songs. Occasionally he had to restart a song change because he was just simply missing the beat. This was the worst club experience I've had. Do not waste your time or money. There are far better places to go. This was so incredibly dissapointing.

It's no longer a fun dance club with funky decor. IT'S A STRIP CLUB! Very strange vibes- empty but also filled with classic strip bar patrons. Also our mixed drinks were revolting; we couldn't finish them... tasted like cleaning alcohol.

cool vibe but it was totally empty on a saturday night so it was pretty boring once you’ve seen everything. the atmosphere is cool, maybe i would’ve enjoyed it had there been more than 10 people there. who knows. the bartenders were really nice and the drinks were fine. security was keeping a close eye on everyone and threw out a guy who kept bothering and touching my friends and I without us having to ask. i saw a few reviews saying that it smells like piss and they weren’t wrong, it kind of does but it’s not overwhelming.

This place used to be so fun - great vibe, queer-friendly, good djs, and theme nights that people really got into. Now the djs are mid and the dance floor is pretty dead; it’s just full of old dudes creeping on strippers. They’ve still got a lot of the old decorations so the aesthetic is still cool, but it just feels cruddy now.

This club has the best design is Seattle! The decor was incredible and the staff were SO kind! The design of the club is truly a work of art, which is super unique. Good people and good times.

Smells like piss. Like someone peed on the dance floor and no one ever cleaned. One of the nastiest establishments I’ve ever been to. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY

*2024 update* From my old review you can see i ised to adore this place- It was a fav spot where i felt safe and it was actually a dance club, i went the weekend before last and they have a new owner. Long story short it is now a musty strip club, idk how old the pics theyve been posting recently of the girls/dance floors are but i can tell you Half of em were nodding out and No one was dancing except about half of the girls on poles. Now its groups of dudes who just stand there staring at you, not to exclude their tickets were 24$ each and you couldnt even breathe inside it was like they had a fog machine hooked up to 27 vapez - even I felt musty walking out of there. The atomopshere was giving *carry mace* )))): 🎉Note to owner: crack a window in there🎉 *old review* * lots of stairs* * i also do not drink so my review is strictly for the dancing club experience * Wonderful first experience! My bestfriend and i saw wreckno! The dancers and staff and everyone were so friendly AMAZING ATMOSPHERE i felt 100% free to be myself ! Absolutely lived the crowd and atmosphere plus free water and fans!! Theres a photo booth and two dance floors plus areas to go outside for air, they also amazingly enough had a seating area which was great for my friend who was recently in an accident and couldnt stand for to long!

This club was a lot of fun! It's a fairly good main dance floor. Even if you are not very close to the DJ, you can still see them clearly, the music is loud, and there were bubbles, confetti, and foam. Always they Offered good food & Service.

This place has many layers to it. You walk upstairs from being checked in by security and pay to enter the club. You go down a hallway of illusive lights before you actually enter the club. It's gimmicky but fun. You can either stay upstairs where they have a bar and "fun room" or go downstairs to the dance floor. Downstairs they have free arcade games and a couple sectioned off tables for bottle service. We came on a Friday night and it was a little slow. Would like to see how active this place can get on another night. Vibe was good and bartenders/security staff were nice.

I was not impressed. The clubs are not what they used to be. The DJ was wack or maybe this is the music mix they play in the clubs now. There's 2 floors and a few different themed rooms for the gram. We got VIP so we went in through the upstairs door and didn't have to wait in line, we got a booth and complimentary bottle service. Drinks are expensive so prefunk before going there.

I attended a birthday party November 18, 2024. I was told by the person that invited us that our cover was included with their VIP package they paid for and to just give our first and last names at the door. When my partner and I arrived, we gave our names but were told we were not on a list. We insisted we were told we were on the list and that we were part of a group that had been paid for. They proceeded to tell us that the VIP packages only cover the person who is being celebrated, not the whole party. We were hesitant, but didn't want to miss the party so we went ahead and paid the $47.20 for both of us to get in. I spoke with the birthday girl and she confirmed that we were in fact paid for ahead of time and everyone else in the party did not pay to get in when they arrived after we did. I emailed Supernova about this and requested a refund November 20, 2024. I also messaged them on Facebook. When I hadn't heard back by November 22, I commented on an Instagram post that I needed a response regarding a refund. They responded and asked me to message them. I direct messaged Supernova on Instagram and they said "Hi! It sounds like you didn't give your name at the door like everyone else did! So our team had no idea you were with her group and on her list! We received your email and appreciate you reaching out again! As you are aware, I'm sure, this is a short week because it's Thanksgiving, and we are doing our best to get to all things that require our attention. Can you please expedite this process by providing us your last four digits on your credit card used? Also, could you please delete your comment as we are addressing your needs as best as we can." This made me upset because we HAD given our names at the door, but were lied to about how cover charges for VIP packages work. I proceeded to give them my credit card information for the refund and they responded with "We apologize on behalf of our staff for communicating the wrong information! Thank you for sending your card info and we will reverse the change as soon as we have the opportunity to do so post holiday." I followed up again on November 30th because the refund has not posted. They read the message but did not respond. I messaged again December 1st requesting a response and they never opened and messages from me again and have now blocked me from their Instagram page. I will have to do a credit card dispute now, which is an irritating waste of my time. I have screenshots of the conversation promising the refund so I will get my money back. Do not trust Supernova. They have lost almost all of their staff that was decent in the past year due to poor and inappropriate treatment of employees. It used to be seen as a safe space for people of the LGBTQ+ community and that is no longer the case either. The DJ quality has gone majorly downhill. The guy on the 18th was horrible and kept messing up transitions between songs which caused everyone to stop dancing and look at each other in confusion. Andrea the new VIP sections choke off parts of the dance floor and they put a VIP Section directly in front of the stage. It is the most odd setup I have ever seen. I will not be going back to Supernova again. It's too bad because it used to be a really cool spot and the disco ball stage is really cool.

Place is a joke! Security is terrible quick to get escalate a situation. Theme of the night was thrown out the window, 90/00s maybe two songs were played. Basically a D list strip club.

Claimed my little sisters ID was fake because we were from Kansas :/ not a good look.

too loud, dirty, and crowded. overpriced cover charge and overpriced drinks. there are much better clubs in more convenient locations.

Not a big club guy, but even then this place was cool when I visited on 01/20 for J Worra. First of all free coat check which is amazing when it's like 40 degrees outside and you have to stand in a bit of a line. The coat check is right up at the front and free and easy (if this isn't an old man comment I don't know what is). You then go through this tunnel into the main room. You're up on a balcony next to the bar and bottle service tables looking down at the DJ table and main dance floor. The main dance floor is pretty cool. You have great visibility of the DJ even if you're not super close by, the music is loud, and we had bubbles, confetti, and foam (?) rain down on us throughout the night. It's crowded, but most people are pretty chill. I'd come back, but leave it for a big DJ night that I'm really into. The bathroom line is ridiculous (no separate men's room) so the worst part of my night was just having to wait to pee.

Fun vibe! Roomies and I wanted to go out and dance and this was super fun! Felt safe too which is a huge plus.

I celebrated my birthday at Supernova and was horrified by the experience. The cover charge attendant tried to upsell us for bottle service knowing last call in 20mins, the bartender only allowed shots during last call, refusing to provide chasers. The owner inappropriate touched our friend, because he refused multiple times and told him he felt uncomfortable this lead to his unjust removal from the club. The service was unsatisfactory and the treatment of customers was unacceptable. I caution others to be weary of their surroundings and the behavior of the owner. I will not be returning to this establishment. I will be providing a photo of the owner so that you can know who to look out for if you bring your friends here, stay safe! :

Drinks = Cover = Entertainment = Staff = Bouncers were hella cool! Bartenders were very friendly Music on point Dancers were dancing Chill and safe place to be you

Cool new club in Sodo area that I got to check out this weekend. We bought tickets online ahead of time, and they were free if we entered before 10pm "in costume". We dressed up with fun 80s clothes since that was the theme for the night. The line was short at 9:45 and they had security wands and checked our vaccine cards. The cover was $15 if you bought a ticket online ahead of time, not sure how much it was at the door but I'd assume more. There's 3 main rooms in the club - a nice sitting area, the balcony with a bar, and the dance floor with a bar in the back. The dance floor got pretty packed by 10:30 and there was live music and go go dancers. There was an advertisement for a magician but I didn't see any. There's a secret photo booth room by a telephone booth. And tons of vintage arcade games (pac man, pinball, etc) to play for free!! That may have been my favorite part

Always have had a blast here. Continuously books top notch talent. Your other option is Monkey Loft (which feels like a drug den).

Best club I've been to in Seattle! Everyone has always been super welcoming, all the staff is amazing! People here have respect & common human decency unlike all the other clubs I've been to, all attendees I've encountered have been super nice and friendly people We love this place so much that we're here weekly! Downside is that it's HOTTTTT inside, I always bring a hand fan and periodically step outside for some fresh air otherwise you'll be sweating up a storm! Fridays are calmer than Saturdays, both days are tons of fun! Lots of photo opportunities * Hallways of Mirrors & different LED Buttons (play with them!) * There's a lounge room with cool lights upstairs * Telephone Booth Downstairs & Picture room right next to it * Disco Lights * Free arcade games all night! * Gender Neutral Bathroom & all the stalls have awesome artwork! Get FREE tickets online and show up before 10pm to get in for free, anytime after is a $25 cover.

Hottest bartenders ! Seriously the best bar/nightclub here in Seattle. The owner and all the bartenders are SOOO friendly. This is the spot

dead club, no one here on a saturday night when I went in Dec. blah lol. Bathroom bouncers are dumb, seemed to like to push around women

We don't go here much anymore because boyfriend isn't much of a dancer (and he says we're getting too old for this!! what? lol) But I love this place. Anywhere that has disco balls is awesome. Boyfriend loves the arcade. He always complains that it's too hot in there too, but he's hot everywhere (and I'm cold everywhere lol). Gets busy but it's one of those clubs where everyone seems respectful, which is wonderful. Super nice staff here too. Great place.

Only been there once. Planning on making reservations for a VIP table on my birthday. This place is great. Unique decor brings you to another time. Loud music, depending on the day you go the genre could change. The drinks were average in price for the area. My experience was during covid and I understand that it's a bit different from when it had just opened before the pandemic. ALSO, be careful wearing high-heels... stairs, heels and drinks do not mix.

So much FUN!!! Extremely inclusive & a safe space for all people. The music is fantastic & diverse. (I've seen Snoop Dogg, Hot Since 82 & Universal Peoples, as well as tons of local & international artists here) They have go-dancers (male & female) aerialists, roller skaters, drag queens....Saturday night is "Stayin' Alive," & they have disco music & people of ALL AGES. They have metal detectors for security & everyone was so friendly. Loved it!!

Saturday night we decided to come here due to a recommendation by a local bartender. I've always had so much fun going to LGTBQ bars but tonight wasn't what I was expecting. It was really really dead inside, probably only 20 - 30 people from what I saw and the music was awful, I think it was mainly disco and maybe a little bit of pop. The staff was really nice and getting a drink was easy. They had two fun little areas to take pictures and hangout in but that was probably the only highlight of the place. The bathroom was a mess, pretty dirty and there were at least three stalls with groups of 4 in there and a lot of angry yelling. Overall I probably won't be visiting here again.

This club was definitely a lot of fun! The music choice was great, the dance floor was spacious, and everyone there had good vibes only. Also, loved seeing how many bouncers/security guards there were. My only complaint is that we paid $10 cover charge to get in (which is not bad) and as soon as we got in, we went to the bar and they said the bar was closed. I wish they would've told us at the front before we paid $10 to get in.

Literally the best service I have ever experienced at any Seattle club. 1000000/10 experience, we will be returning

The service here is top tier! The energy is a whole vibe! This place goes up every night it's open! The bartenders always poor big drinks! All the ladies here are sexy!

Gorgeous venue but super super packed, we had a hard time navigating the lower area when we did go down because of how many bodies were there and it was super hot as well. The VIP area we saw didn't have the best view of the stage, but we didn't purchase a table so I'm not sure if different spots have different prices!

Me and a gal pal had heard both sides about this place & chose Halloween wknd as a litmus test to try it out. Perfecto - we buttoned up our costumes, hit led down the freaky hall of mirtors. Bananas!! into a world populated of funky colorful characters, frolicking and dancing to a boppin' mix of retro-jams and fresh beats. Glitz and glam decor, colors and shapes shimmering and shaking, mind blowing ambiance 22much fun Errbody bops along smiling and happy; it's dopamine-central round these parts. I like it here. Sure, it was crowded a f. What do you want? It's Saturday night, and Halloween wknd to boot. At least you're not surrounded by a bunch of drunken fecks at some chitty pub in Georgetown or Burien

We have come to supernova several times , and we have enjoyed every experience, until our recent visit this weekend. The owner was touching our friend and this was making our friend extremely uncomfortable, he asked him to stop but the owner wasn't listening, we then got kicked out because our friend wasn't compliant with what the owner wanted from him. I really don't understand how this could be accessible, even if the owner is calling the shots. I think that he needs to be fully evaluated, he is abusing his power & he doesn't understand that no means no. Posting this review for awareness, we will not be coming back to supernova ever again.

Been here twice recently. Very hot, confusing exit situation, meh vibes. Can't speak to watered-down drinks as I only had a slushie that was cavity-inducingly sweet and an $8 beer (some beers and white claws are now $8 at Monkey so it is what it is). Maybe it was better when it had just opened in 2021 but seemed to be lacking in TLC - just kind of dingy? Had no issues with the service and liked the bathroom situation. Now hearing the many allegations against the owner of racism, performative allyship and condoning SA, will not be going here again.

Super fun, love the vibe. Make me feel happy and let me shut out the shittiness of life lol.

I went to supernova to see James hype and one of the funnest nights I've had for awhile. It's very picture esque and aesthetically pleasing. The disco balls were discoing! Service was great, staff was helpful when it came to navigating this place. It's multistory so it kind of got confusing once the booze hit. One thing that was whacky was the bathroom situation. But nothing to not have me going back again.

Cons: Smells like piss inside (all of my friends crinkled their noses as soon as we walked in), a double shot vodka soda is $20 Pros: Funky beats, wasn't too crowded, fashion show was cool, awesome spots to take photos

Totally dead on a Saturday night. It's a big space so it just felt cold and empty and uncomfortable. Place seems dingy and dirty and there was a foul smell not just near the bathroom but everywhere. Bartender was friendly but even she seemed bored! No one dancing. Random tables and some dilapidated fake plants in the middle of the floor. We stayed a little while to try and justify the cover and see if it picked up but it never did. Someone we talked to on the way out said it's always like this unless a promoter brings some local rapper and then it's chaotic and scary. Wish them well but won't be back.

i would not recommend this place. The doorman named Kaleb is extremely rude. I bought tickets to wreckno, waited about 40 minutes in line, and when I got to the front they patted us down but didn't scan our tickets. i thought that was weird so I turned around to ask why and the doorman bit my head off, like literally told me I was annoying and to get the f&!?!*! out of his face or he would have me kicked out. I told him he was an asshole and went back inside. I could not believe he had spoken to me like that for simply asking why my ticket wasn't scanned. then a woman came up and told me to come outside and then said I couldn't go back in. Even after I explained what happened. I have never been kicked out of anywhere on my life. Maybe that guy was having a bad night, but hey maybe they wouldn't have had too many people inside if they were actually scanning tickets. I have been there one other time and it was okay except the go go dancer had the creepiest clown makeup on. Both times I have been it smelled REALLY bad in there. if I could give it zero stars I would have.

Overall- it was "okay." Visiting from Denver, heard great things and decided to go. Arrived at 9:45pm to a basically empty warehouse. The people at the desk were very nice, welcoming and fun. Entrance to the club was awesome. Hidden photo booth was fun. Drinks were outrageously priced. As the night went on and more people showed up, the vibes got better. 2 people performed on stage in roller skates- loved it. DJ played mostly EDM mixes of songs Ive never heard, if you're into that kind of music then you would enjoy, was hoping to hear at least one song we knew but it was all house music. Performers began busting moves on stage which was fun to watch and dance to. Staff were very nice and inclusive (there was one all gender restroom with an attendant- fun!). Music was not it. The atmosphere was not as "packed" as it seemed it would be. Overall, it was a good experience but I would never pay the price to get in or the price for the drinks again. We wish that we wanted to stay there all night, but ended up leaving within a few hours.

I really wish my friend and I could have enjoyed this place fully. They really have an amazing stage and lights set up. Staff let us know very quickly that straight Black women are very unwelcome here! As a bartender myself, the person running the bar was terrible. Incredibly rude. Yes i understand the law but you can explain that in a more savvy way then they did. Growing up, i had to stay at jobs no matter how tired i was. As long as there was money, we were not allowed to turn paying customers away. It may be more fair for the workers now, but it's not fair to me as someone who was forced to work so hard to never ever receive good service in return! I'm confused how are these people inclusive or intersectional?? My friend agrees that as blank Women we are never made to feel included by this crowd!! Just utterly disrespected. It's no fun and not fair. Then security followed us around all night... for what reason i have no idea because as usual no one stopped the party goers who wanted to push, punch, and kick us. They just watch and laugh and still give us intimidating aggressive energy like "you two better not do anything bad". We are both fully grown and just wanted to go out and dance. We will only attend Black clubs from now on. Can't believe how racist seattle is to where even LGBT ppl deny us the right to have some good normal American fun

Best nightclub in Seattle. There is nothing like it. The whole place is like an art exhibit except you can get reasonably priced drinks and dance to live music. Highly recommend.

10/10 would recommend. Pleasant staff and great talent/performers. Don't forget to visit their unique photo booth. Arrive early to save on cover and the wait in line. Vaccine required so bring your card and mask so you can have the time of your life.

$30 cover fee, and it's just a standard club with bad music. The main appeal is the funky style. If you like waiting in line for 45 mins to get in and paying $11 for a single shot then maybe you'd like this place. Props to the girl at the front that did her job very well and lied to us about how the club was. After hearing we'd have to pay a $30 cover fee, we contemplated leaving (it was a tough decision considering we had just spent 45 mins in line). She sold a fantasy saying they had a guy putting glitter on people, and that they had way more attractions than just a dance floor and that it was multiple levels. None of this was true. Save your money and go elsewhere!

Cool vibe inside and good music. I really appreciated seeing a variety of go-go dancers beyond the usual (i.e. skinny or muscular cis people): I was happy to see go-go dancers who were trans and fat. I was also excited to see random drag performances throughout the night (I came on a random Saturday so didn't expect this): specifically, I loved seeing Hot Pink Shade, and I hope they are a regular there, because their performance was amazing.

Had a great time at this club! Very safe/ inclusive vibe. The drinks were not very good/ totally not going for a margarita again, buuuuut the drummer was fantastic. The people working there were nice. Coat check was free. No creeps. Felt super safe the whole time and appreciated the performers and music.

Cool venue, stage was awesome and workers were nice. Only one negative thing. the entrance is to the top floor, and they said we had to exit through the bottom floor. When it was starting to get busy, they make you wait in line to go downstairs. I'm assuming because of capacity. So you had to wait in line, and they wouldn't let you go down unless you were vip or someone came back up. Which meant if you wanted to leave, you had to wait your turn. Just thought this was weird. Otherwise, super cool venue!

Supernova is what Seattle's nightlife has been calling for. The vibes are absolutely stellar inside. Art, character, and love are found wherever the eye looks. I was a fan of Stayin' Alive disco nights before, and this venue takes that night to a whole new level. I love the unique mixture of dancers, musicians and DJs. It's clear that everyone who works there enjoys and wants to contribute to this new nightlife community. Thank you for existing, Supernova Seattle.

My friends and I really like disco bars. This place is one of the best. Here you can have fun until tired. It's really the best and I'm going to go often.

Made a trip to Seattle from Cali for New Year's Eve and went here. Loved it! It was packed of course but in a good way. They had great music to dance to. I'd definitely want to go here again if we ever make another trip to Seattle.

Came out excited to see Jauz since this is a new venue. We had high expectations since nightlife is nowhere close to LV or LA. I like the entrance way that has mirrors and fun lights, but this is establishment is nothing fancy. There's doesn't seem to be AC here, or any sort of circulation in this building, so I'd advise wearing a mask for safety precaution but it was super musty and muggy, and felt like a sauna. Before entering, one of the employees mentioned it was 72 degrees when we first got in, which was around 9:30pm and she said it would only get hotter. The place was overcrowded and we considered getting a table so we could have a seat during the event but there was no view of the stage because the only one left was in the back corner upstairs. There are only 3 tables total for bottle service, not a lot of options since it's a small club. If you're paying for VIP service you should at least be able to enjoy the stage. We checked out the very back of the top floor, and the cushions were stained and wet. It didn't seem like they had been cleaned so it was not worth trying to sit there. It was so disgustingly hot upstairs we stood by the window for a part of the show. I'll reiterate there was a lack of air circulation and AC. Downstairs, what a hot mess. Even the back by the bar has a shoddy view of the stage, this is obstructed by the low ceiling. Bartenders were at least quick and easy-going. Restrooms are a joke, they're unisex which I didn't care for because I'd like my privacy away from men but that's not the issue. The line was so damn long, and to add, there's only restrooms downstairs. We went earlier on in the evening when there wasn't many people there, however, later down the road we had to wait about 10 minutes to take a leak. We wouldn't return here.

The only nightclub I've been to in Seattle that was actually fun. Does Seattle even have another nightclub? Anyway went once and I had a great time on st Patrick's day. I really need to dance it out!!

I had a lot of fun here! Drinks are pricey but I suspect that's bound to be the case wherever you go, but they were strong without tasting like it and were easy on my stomach, which is a rarity. Would recommend.

There is no other club like Supernova. That may be good or bad depending on your persuasion. If you want to experience a night out that feels like NYC or Ibiza in the early 90s (quoth a recent out-of-stats house music DJ legend), with all the glam, flair, and positivity you only get with something brilliantly different and inclusive, you'll call this place home. If you're a clubber's clubber looking for pretense and bangers in da club, well, try this out. It's unapologetically what it is, and what it is (while being truly PNW) hasn't been done ever in this town on this level. It's more than a venue; it's a message and, if you have the right attitude and open mind, the best night out you may have ever had. Every. Damn. Weekend.

Worst club in Seattle. Front desk people are very rude and disrespectful. I didn't feel welcome here at all.

Super awesome lgbtq+ skating place to be! Went near Halloween and I had no complaints!
