World Cup Quarterfinal Watch Party
Historic Lobo TheaterThe World Cup quarterfinal goes up on the Lobo's theater big screen and across a 15-screen sports lounge that includes a four-panel video wall, all of it free to walk into on a Friday night on Central.

New Mexico Tattoo Fiesta
Albuquerque Convention CenterThree days of live tattooing, artist booths, ink competitions, and music spread across the Convention Center on Central. A show this size draws regional and national artists you wouldn't normally find in one building, so it's a genuinely useful place to shop for your next artist before committing.

Hello Darlin Live on Route 66 at Thirsty Eye Brewing
Thirsty Eye Brewing CompanyamericanaDetailsHello Darlin, a country and Americana act whose name tips its hand immediately, takes the Thirsty Eye taproom stage on a Friday evening at 5 p.m. The room is small enough that there is no bad spot for sound, but that same quality means it reaches capacity faster than most people expect. Check the 505...

Dance Hackathon: Reify at UNM Arts Lab
UNM Arts LabReify is a live collision between movement and technology, with dancers and sound artists working alongside coders and designers in real time rather than performing finished work. The Arts Lab format tends to blur the line between audience and participant, so expect something messier and more interesting than a conventional showcase. Check the Eventbrite listing...

Holy Roller Live at ABQ BioPark Zoo
ABQ BioPark Zooall agesDetailsHoly Roller brings their abrasive, hook-heavy rock to the BioPark Zoo's outdoor concert setup on a Friday evening in July. The zoo context sounds gimmicky until you're actually there, because the open-air setting and ambient noise from the grounds make for a looser, more forgiving room than a bar stage. Admission details weren't confirmed at...

Reviva Live at Old Town Gazebo
Old Town Gazeboall agesDetailsReviva takes the Old Town Gazebo stage for an evening show in one of Albuquerque's most recognizable outdoor settings, steps from the plaza and the tourist foot traffic that comes with it. The gazebo's open-air layout means sound bleeds into the surrounding park, so the further back you stand the more it feels like ambient...

The Mango Cakes with Carita
Marble Brewery DowntownTwo Albuquerque acts share the Marble Downtown stage on a Friday night, with Carita opening for The Mango Cakes. Marble's patio pulls in foot traffic from the street, so the room tends to fill faster than the 9 p.m. crowd expects. Admission details weren't confirmed at press time, so check the ticket link before you...

Micky Bang & Jawny Badluck Live
El Rey TheaterFour local acts share the Insideout stage for a night that reads like a who's-who of the current Burque underground rap scene. Insideout runs small and loud, so expect the kind of room where the bass hits you before you find a spot to stand. Admission isn't listed yet, so check the 505 Live link...

Kaleidoscope Live at Thirsty Eye
Thirsty Eye Brewing CompanybreweryDetailsKaleidoscope takes the floor at Thirsty Eye Brewing on a Friday night, with the kind of two-hour set that suits a brewery room that actually has decent acoustics for its size. Thirsty Eye runs small-batch taps that rotate often, so arriving early to sort out your drink before the room fills is a reasonable plan....
