• Mary Gauthier at FUSION 708

    FUSION | 708
    DowntownintimateTickets

    Mary Gauthier is one of the more unsparing songwriters working in American roots music, the kind who writes about addiction, incarceration, and grief with enough craft that the songs feel like relief rather than punishment. FUSION | 708 is a small room on Central, which means you are close enough to watch her face, and...

    Barelasall agesTickets

    ABQ BioPark's Africa Family Night opens up the zoo grounds on a summer evening with Africa-focused animal programming and activities geared toward kids. Evening hours mean cooler temperatures and animals that are often noticeably more active than during a midday visit. Tickets through Hold My Ticket suggest capacity is managed, so booking ahead is the...

  • Isotopes vs. Round Rock Express

  • Slow Joy + The High Curbs + Glom at Launchpad Downtown

    Downtownall agesTickets

    Slow Joy's tour lands at Launchpad on a Tuesday night with local support from The High Curbs and Glom, which is the kind of weeknight bill that quietly outperforms the weekend. Launchpad runs small and loud, so if Slow Joy's recorded haze translates live the way it should, the back of the room is still...

  • Isotopes vs. Round Rock Express

    Isotopes Park
    UNM AreacasualTickets

    Triple-A ball under the Albuquerque sky, with the Isotopes taking on the Round Rock Express in a Pacific Coast League matchup at one of the better mid-size ballparks in the country. Isotopes Park sits right on the corridor and the mountain views beyond the outfield wall are legitimately good, especially on a July evening when...

  • Starcrawler at Launchpad

    Launchpad
    Downtownlate nightTickets

    Starcrawler brings their Los Angeles glam-punk theatrics to Launchpad, with Albuquerque's own Sluttony opening a bill that should get loud fast. Launchpad's low ceiling and close stage make Arrow de Wilde's frontperson energy hit differently than it does in larger rooms. Grab tickets in advance through Hold My Ticket since this one has the profile...

  • Allison Euforia USA Tour at Sunshine Theater Downtown

    Downtownall agesTickets

    Allison hits the Sunshine Theater on the Euforia USA Tour, with Forever Came Calling and Loser's Club opening on a bill that leans hard into pop-punk and melodic hardcore. The Sunshine's standing-room floor packs tighter than most people expect for a mid-week show, so arriving close to doors is worth it if you want a...

    Martin y Moso brings their act to Town & Ranch, one of the more reliably intimate stops on the Central corridor for live music. The ticket link is live through 505 Live Music, which suggests this is a proper ticketed show rather than a walk-in situation, so buying ahead is the smarter move. Details on...
