Underground Arts

Cool venue with plenty of nearby paid parking. The staff are adamant about safety, which is appreciated, especially with there being a bar. Drunk idiots who can't behave themselves at a show are kept in line without much chaos. The venue has a snack bar and seating area in the side room in case it's a sold out event with a big crowd, which is also nice if you get a overwhelmed or just need a break from all the people. Happy to see them offering coat check, which is only a couple of bucks! They also have a pretty great selection of N/A drinks, and everything is pretty reasonably priced.

We had a spectacular time here. Word of warning though, it can get a little hot. It's literally UNDER GROUND so you will feel a little claustrophobic but the security was on point. They have a very strict ID system so make sure your ID is up to date. You will not be allowed in without one or if your ID is expired. We enjoyed the featured drinks for the main event and the coat check. The bathrooms were okay but felt a little exposed. It was clean. The stage was very well lit and I was able to see the band(s) where I was standing.

4.5 stars would be most accurate. Yes, Underground Arts get some great acts. I’ve seen multiple shows here and had great times. In fact, one of my favorite concerts ever happened here. The location is not too big so you can pretty much see from anywhere. And because the merch table is in the concert area it’s quite often open for the entire show so you can pick up something during during the sets. Is it a beautiful concert hall or some amazing building? Not exactly. It has the true indie feel of going to see a band in the basement down to the industrial beams that can block your view, depending on where you’re standing. Think black light parking lot with a bar, actually more than one bar when the doors are open to the other part. Everyone’s at the same level, so it’s all equal maybe not equitable if your short standing in the back but equal. The place holds a max 650 people which when a concert is sold out is basically the equivalent of a sardine can. this is my main reason for thinking about giving four stars instead of five. There was barely enough room to get from the front door to the bathroom without having to excuse yourself two dozen times and getting to the bar on the main floor was nearly impossible unless you went to the other bar. There’s not much the venu can do about this. There’s not that much room, but it does make things a little bit more difficult. Like the rest of the glow-in-the-dark art, they could make a glow-in-the-dark path on the ground to get you from one side to the other. People might not comply, but it would help I think.The building is ADA compliant and there is an elevator to get in and out. You need to talk to staff to do that because the main entrance is steps up and then steps down, so if that’s difficult talk to the staff member about elevator.

Really neat venue that I'm looking forward to coming back to. Easy to get to with parking nearby, cool artwork on the walls, nice merch for the venue itself. You have to take a few flights of stairs down to the performance space - not sure if it is ADA friendly. It's not a huge space so the show felt intimate, and since it is in the basement, the ceilings are kind of low. There are multiple pillars that may slightly block your view so get there early for a good view. They have cameras recording the stage and have 2 screens on pillars in the main performance space to watch, or a separate room altogether with dedicated seating space and a large projector screen. Nice spot to take a rest if the main room is too overwhelming. There are 3 bars that can also pour draft beers which are very affordable compared to other music venues. You can buy earplugs for $1 in case you forget your own, and you'll need them - the speakers are DEAFENINGLY loud. Bathrooms are gender neutral so that is a bit chaotic if not used to that set up. Didn't try the food but they are a decently long menu. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because it got extremely hot and humid in the space. Bring a hand fan. All staff was pleasant!

You have to go down a lot of stairs, it's in a basement, but about what I expect for a venue like this. Bar with a moderate selection. Up close and personal with acts that play here, which is what I love!

Came here last night for the Charli XCX and Chappel Roan dance party. We had an amazing time!! Drinks were on point and reasonable and it was a cool atmosphere. I can’t wait to come back!!

This is a fun place to see a band. I have been here twice in the last few months (Hoodoo Gurus in September '24 and Quicksand March' 25) and had a great time at both shows.

Cool small venue. This place is in the basement of a building which gives it a unique vibe. Street parking is almost impossible but there's a lot around the corner which is usually open if you get there early enough. The place only holds like 650 people so matter where you stand, you can see the whole stage. Would definitely go back if a band I liked played here.
