October 17 at 4am (This weekend)
Emperor Norton's BoozeLand · Tenderloin • $
Goth meets cumbia in this monthly dance party that spins everything from post-punk to rock en español. Set in a gorgeous art deco dive bar with a smoking patio and pool tables for when you need a breather.
October 17 at 9pm (This weekend) +17
Rick & Roxy's · Cow Hollow • $$
Saturday nights here have a split personality in the best way. Roxy's side brings disco balls, go-go cages, and dance floor energy, while Rick's keeps it low-key with darts, games, and classic cocktails.
January 19 at 9:30pm
The Saloon · North Beach • $
Step into 1861 at The Saloon, San Francisco's oldest bar, where Jinx Jones brings rockabilly twang to a packed dance floor of locals and vintage-clad regulars. The space is tight, the sound is surprisingly good, and the energy is pure throwback joy.
Eli's Mile High Club · Longfellow • $
DJ CLZA spins at Eli's Mile High Club, a divey punk institution with West Oakland history and soul. Expect stiff drinks, pool tables, and an eclectic crowd dancing under the speakers.
October 21 at 7am +2
Renegades · Central San Jose • $
A neighborhood dive bar where everyone knows each other and the kink-friendly themed nights keep things interesting. Expect strong Manhattans, sweet bartenders, and a welcoming community vibe.
October 16 at 7am +14
Movida · South Beach • $$
Persian-Mexican fusion meets Tehran-to-Mexico City DJ sets at this Michelin-recognized SoMa lounge. Expect Bone Marrow, Corn Ribs, and creative cocktails in a space designed for dancing as much as dining.
Browse the Bay Area neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
