Events on Central

Unicorn Productions brings their burlesque and variety showcase to Launchpad, a room that has hosted everything from metal to comedy and handles late-night chaos better than most Downtown spots. The...

Albuquerque's drum and bass crew 505 Junglists takes over Insideout with a deep lineup spanning jungle, liquid funk, and straight-up bass weight, plus MCs Jaymo G and Luke's B holding it down live. Insideout runs small and the sound system is built for low end, so this kind of bill hits differently than it would...

Four of Albuquerque's own jungle and drum and bass selectors, Xblyssid, Pretty High, S.A.I.N.T, and Dumb and Based, share the decks while MCs Jayzo G and Lukey B hold the mic for a late-night session that runs well into the small hours.

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.
