Fillmore Auditorium San Francisco
The city’s most storied music venue retains a bit of its hippie-dippie past (no, not weed, we’re talking about its selection of classic rock posters). But despite the rich history, The Fillmore is very much in the present, drawing top acts across all genres.

The Independent San Francisco

Fox Theater San Francisco
After a massive renovation, this uptown theater retains its classic cool: Witness the gold detailing, opulent red curtains, and The Den, its very own bar serving specialty cocktails. It’s more old-school parlor than concert venue, and we like it that way.

Rickshaw Stop San Francisco
Rock out with your ’hawk out at this sweaty, sultry club where rockers, punk heads, and electronic fans merge. Thick red curtains envelop the dance floor downstairs, while a more mellow upstairs has a few couches to lounge on. (Tip: The sangria ain’t half bad, but consider yourself warned.)
