    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    The Box brings improv comedy to its intimate black-box space on Central, where the room holds maybe 60 people and the performers can see every wince and laugh. That closeness is the whole thing here, for better and occasionally for worse. Grab a ticket in advance; this format sells out faster than you'd expect for...

    Reklez Entertainment is throwing a late-night rodeo at Gaia's Kava Root, a kava bar on Central that runs closer to a living room than a nightclub. The kava-instead-of-alcohol setup makes...

    UNM AreasportsTickets

    New Mexico United brings Sacramento Republic FC to Isotopes Park for a USL Championship regular-season match on a Saturday evening in late September.

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    A live improv comedy show at The Box, one of the more committed small performance spaces on the Central corridor, running about an hour at 8PM.

    UNM AreafilmTickets

    The 1984 film plays in full on a big screen while a live orchestra performs Elmer Bernstein's score underneath it, which turns out to be a genuinely different experience than watching it at home for the fifteenth time. Popejoy is a proper concert hall with good sightlines and real acoustics, so the music actually lands...

  • NM United Soccer at Isotopes Park

    Isotopes Park
    UNM AreasportsTickets

    New Mexico United returns to Isotopes Park for a USL Championship home match against Monterey Bay FC, a California club that has been competitive enough to make this a meaningful late-season fixture. The stadium sits right on Central, so you can walk from a pre-game dinner on the corridor without thinking about parking, which is...

    The Pit
    UNM AreasportsDetails

    The Lobos tip off their 2026-27 home schedule against Utah Tech at The Pit, one of the loudest arenas in college basketball when the crowd shows up for it. Early-season games against smaller programs can go either way atmospherically, so bring some noise and don't count on the crowd to do it for you. Tickets...
