ATH is throwing a blackout-theme welcome back party at the El Rey to close out their welcome back week, which puts a few hundred people in all black inside one...

In The Box Annex takes improv somewhere extraterrestrial with A51*, a one-hour comedy set built around the kind of absurdist premises that either land brilliantly or flame out in real time, which is the whole point. The Box is a small black-box room where the audience is close enough to the performers that there is...

ATH is throwing its Welcome Back Week opener as a blackout theme party at El Rey, which means wear black or spend the night feeling underdressed. El Rey's main floor gets dark and loud in a way that actually suits a theme party, but the room is large enough that it never feels suffocating. Grab...

A 2000s throwback night at one of Nob Hill's most architecturally loaded rooms, co-presented by REKLEZ ENT and AM ENT. The Lobo's wide floor and decent sound system make it a better dancing venue than most people expect the first time they walk in. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so grab them ahead rather...

Isotopes Park sits right on the corridor and draws a crowd that runs from serious baseball people to families who are mostly there...

Benny Bassett brings his bass-forward sound to the food hall stage at Sawmill Market, one of the more eclectic live music settings on the corridor. The room is open and...

Gaia's Door Girls are turning the front of this Central Ave kava bar into a full elote operation for an afternoon, with Coco's Clothing Swap rolling in racks and Bruja Beauty LLC doing looks alongside.

Specific artists are listed as TBD at time of publication, so check back near the date if a particular performer is the draw for you. Doors and seating matter here...

Jordan Jonas brings his paranormal storytelling to Painted Lady's Brews & Boos series, a recurring late-night event that leans harder into atmosphere than your average bar talk. Painted Lady's intimate rooms make this kind of thing work better than it has any right to, so sitting close is worth arriving early for. Midnight start time...
