Sound is better in new space. Downside is 3 venues (Heaven, He'll and Purgatory) are small and in Underground. Can never find access and hardly see a soul unless PD. Unsafe. Cheap drinks good music .

Foursquare Insiders

"The shows upstairs are more enjoyable because the sound from the upper part of the venue bleeds through and drowns out the band on the 1st floor." - Roy LaManna, Music Entrepreneur Read more

By far my favorite music venue in the ATL. Attended many great shows. It is a multifaceted as well as shows can be both indoor and outdoors. The staff is great and the drinks are better.

Mike

Super cool venue with multiple levels / stages . They have areas outside for you to smoke and sit and enjoy a PBR .

They built a park , apartments , and a new music park where the old lot used to be. Side street Parking only so come early! No more old easy masq parking which SUCKS!

Good, in-town outdoor and indoor event space

Great live music as well as DJs and festivals ! Every genre you can imagine.

Make sure you check out all levels. Sometimes there is live music on one level and a dj on another.

The bartender in purgatory is awesomely heavy handed.

I see dead people: Oakland Cemetery , Fox Theatre , The Masquerade, Anthony's Restaurant , and Six Flags are all said to have ghosts haunting the grounds.

Heather Caldwell

Great Concert Venue ! Awesome Atmosphere - I saw the Pretty Reckless there and it was GREAT!!!

Cameron Turner

I’d like for them to accept AMEX and allow a patron to purchase two drinks as a maximum.

I only have 1 thing to say about the restaurants in the masquerade :....... Damn. if you gotta go go in the parking lot , you may be stabbed by a hobo but at least you won't fall through the floor

Legendary venue that has featured numerous metal shows since the 90's. Three levels and an outside stage brings most of the metal tours to this venue.

Mandy Harbison

Love the place but drinks are not cheap !

Claire Miller

Avoid the bathrooms ... I think the fire must have started there... You'll know what I mean when you see this place

Brittni

The security guards are assholes. They go out of their way to kick ppl out for the stupidest reasons

Mike Fossett

they use cooler ice in the mixed drinks , parchers I bottled coke from the bar and sneak in your own liquor to make your own .

Fadia Kader

Home of A3C! And some of my favorite shows! Get familiar with the calendar to see your favorite acts!

Brandie

Stick with beer ...They use their beer cooler ice as ice for their cocktails ...Also, don't get shot in a parking lot dispute and park at Murder Kroger up the street....yes, it's safer.

Mari Scott

No pens or markers allowed inside.

Roger Vadocz

Don't eat the yellow snow!!

Nate Bennett

Side street parking is no longer allowed. The adjacent lot is $5 with plenty of space. It is a staple of the Atlanta music scene.

Krista Aversano

Bring cash! It's outside the ATMs are breaking and the only bar taking cards is a shitshow.

Freezing. Bring a fricken hiking jacket .
