• Las Borrachas & Carma at Lunas Kava Root

    Gaia's Kava Root
    UNM AreaelectronicDetails

    Two local electronic acts, Las Borrachas and Carma, are headlining this late-night set at Lunas Kava Root, a kava bar on Central that tends to run quieter and more intentional than your average after-hours spot. The 3:00 AM UTC timestamp puts this squarely in after-hours territory, but the listed start time is a placeholder, so...

  • Carma & Friends at the Press Club

    Albuquerque Social Club
    Nob HillDJ setTickets

    Carma holds down a resident takeover at the Press Club, which means the booth stays in trusted hands for the duration and the night builds with some intention rather than...

  • Late-Night Improv Comedy

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    Long-form improv from the Improv Theatre company at The Box, starting well after midnight on a Saturday, which tells you exactly what kind of crowd you'll find. The Box is a proper black box theater, so even a small audience feels like it was planned that way, and the format rewards staying attentive rather than...

  • Selah Cantwell Live at Sawmill Market

    Sawmill Market
    Sawmillsinger-songwriterDetails

    Selah Cantwell takes the Sawmill Market stage on a Saturday night at 10:30, which puts this squarely in late-night territory for a food-hall setting that typically runs quieter by that hour. The later slot usually means a more concentrated crowd, people who stayed on purpose, and that tends to suit a singer-songwriter well. Ticket link...

  • 24 Hour Sketch Fest at The Box

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    This is a one-hour sketch comedy show on The Box's Mainstage, part of a marathon 24-hour festival format where ensembles write, rehearse, and perform new material inside a single day. That constraint tends to produce work that is rawer and more surprising than polished repertory shows, which is either the appeal or the caveat depending...

  • Birthday Metal Blowout on Route 66 at Launchpad Downtown

    Launchpad
    DowntownmetalTickets

    Five bands, one birthday, and a ticket link that tells you this is not a casual drop-in situation. Launchpad's stage fits this kind of stacked local lineup well, and a 40th birthday bill tends to bring out people who actually care, which lifts the room considerably. Get there before the opener if you want a...

  • Kai Radius & Daddy Dan at Lunas Kava Root

    Gaia's Kava Root
    UNM AreaelectronicDetails

    An after-hours electronic night billed as 'Afters With The Cave,' with Kai Radius and Daddy Dan holding down the late shift at Lunas Kava Root on Central. Kava bars run on their own clock, so the 9 PM time listed here is a placeholder pulled from the source and should be confirmed through the ticket...

  • The Talking Hours + Art Dept. + Zero Future

    Moonlight Lounge
    Downtownlive musicTickets

    Three local acts share the Moonlight Lounge stage on what is technically a Sunday night, with the show running until 1 AM local time. That late-weekend timing tends to thin the crowd by the third set, which means Zero Future will either play to the faithful or to a nearly empty room. Tickets are through...

  • Sandia Shockwave at Insideout

    Inside Out
    Downtownlive musicTickets

    Sandia Shockwave takes the stage at Insideout for a late-night run that kicks off at 10 p.m. and closes out well past midnight. Insideout is a compact room where the sound hits hard regardless of where you're standing, so expect the volume to be part of the experience. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so...

  • CLAWZ For the Floor Tour at Effex

    Effex
    DowntownelectronicTickets

    CLAWZ headlines this late-night electronic event at Effex as part of a touring floor-focused set, with local support from SIHK and MEGAB4T rounding out the bill. The UTC start time puts this squarely in after-midnight territory local time, so this is a proper late-night run, not an early evening hang. Tickets are through Hold My...
