Some of the city's best venues for catching great live bands.

 1. The ARTery

9535 Jasper Ave
Edmonton, AB T5H
(780) 424-1573
4.0 star rating
  5/18/2010

Smack in the middle of one of the seedier parts of town, this space is without a doubt the loveliest venue in town for small arts, indie and punk related events, feeling more like a large house than a business. A small corner stage with sparkly…More »

  Update - 9/25/2010

Just an update: Friday nights upstairs at New City are now officially Mod Club nights. The same DJs who once spun killer dance parties at Halo now hold court over the Likwid Lounge floor; expect classic rock 'n' roll, britpop and soul, boys and girls…More »

I went to The Haven last night to see Rae Spoon play after a friend fell in love with her song, I'll Be A Ghost For You, and am very glad to have discovered this basement venue on my favourite, loveably-seedy strip of Stony Plain Road.
Classy, lit…More »

 4. Century Casino & Hotel

13103 Fort Rd NW
Edmonton, AB T5A 1C3
(780) 643-4000

Categories: Casinos, Hostels

4.0 star rating
  9/24/2010

Century Casino lies in the northeast end of town near Belvedere Station. Somewhat on the smaller end of the city's gaming room scale, the casino is clean, well-maintained and generally feels safe, always a good sign. Its selection of slots isn't the…More »

 5. The Hydeaway All Ages Art Space

10209 100 Ave
Edmonton, AB T5J

4.0 star rating
  11/7/2008 First to Review

The Hydeaway is sort of an offshoot of the Jekyll and Hyde pub, geared towards all-ages patrons and hosting a variety of events and concerts every night of the week. I've been by twice lately to see friends play and while this spot on the ground…More »

 6. Wunderbar Hofbrauhaus

8120 101 Street
Edmonton, AB T6E 3Y9
(780) 200-9559

Categories: Bars, Music Venues

3.0 star rating
  11/7/2008 First to Review

Lately I've wound up at the Wunderbar on a few occasions, mostly Sunday nights to watch solo folk musicians play live.
As can be inferred by the name, it's a German-themed bar, serving Bratwurst on request, beer in mugs larger than my head and airing…More »

 7. Starlite Room

10030 102 St NW
Edmonton, AB T5J 0V6
(780) 428-1099

Categories: Lounges, Music Venues

3.0 star rating
  10/21/2008

The Starlite Room is the latest venue to reside in the same building that housed both the Bronx and the Rev. I've only been to a couple of shows here; when it's a packed house, it's great; when it's an empty room, it's a very empty room. But overall…More »

 8. New City Suburbs

8130 Gateway Blvd
Edmonton, AB T5J 1W5
(780) 429-2582

Category: Dance Clubs

5.0 star rating
  9/25/2010 ROTD 3/1/2011

The music and the crowd may seem a little intimidating to some, but hard as it may be to believe, New City is easily the most welcoming club in the entire city. On its regular Saturday industrial nights, people clad in gas masks, eye patches, and…More »
