Beautifully redesigned venue with plenty of bars . General admission show was crowded but manageable.

Deb

Love catching a show at the Studio.

Concert Ticket Agency

From Al Capone to Amanda Palmer! Since 1886 it's hosted great live music , legendary parties and superb Broadway cast recordings. Catch a killer show here and see if the walls really do talk...

Cole Kennedy

One of my favorite NYC rock clubs . Relatively cheap beer , laid back and friendly staff , and intimate atmosphere . What more could you ask for?

Chris Raghoobar

One of my favorite venues in the whole city , as well as the studio downstairs. Excellent sound, great vibes and atmosphere. One of the best places to see great concerts .

Christina Chin

If you can make your way to balcony , do it. got view from the rail, no crushing involved. Balcony shakes from the jumping, I hope structure is checked everytime! ???? coat check avail

Jackie Napalan

Younger crowd since it's a 19+ venue. Best EDM artists here. Several floors with more open space . Security is tight. Sign up on their guest list the week prior to the event . Always a good time here.

Victoria Menichetti

On Fri 7/6/12 they were shut down because someone got stabbed! My friend made it thru the security check with a huge pocket knife in his pocket! They're too busy taking girls bras off the find drugs..

Matt Abbruzzese

Extremely hospitable , kind staff in VIP section (no, VIP areas don't always have great service!). Separate bar and VIP-only bathrooms certainly come in handy!

The Corcoran Group

One of our favorite places to catch live music . Come here ready to dance and party all night long!

Metin

I came here a few times and it's a place where mostly 17-21 year olds hang out. Concert nights are great, it might seem really small but it's actually more fun than it looks.

Jason Schulweis

Convenient and massive (and great bc they house multiple acts on the same night due to the different floors/rooms. Great acts come through! And try to see someone on the rise in the Studio

EchoDA

this has many floors! and you can definitely get lost here! there is all kinds of music and different crowds. If want to explore different types of music then this is the place to get a glimpse!

Mitch Gurowitz

Went to a Bowery Presents show and was very pleased to see that the bands started on time! So I know in the future I can comfortably see shows there and be home at a reasonable hour.

C 4

Get sweaty and rock the fuck out to some massive beats. Ladies: do yourself a favor and wear closed-toed shoes & leave the heels at home. You will get stepped on. Everyone does.

EchoDA

Madonna has performed here, a cool place to get lost and enjoy trance, club, salsa and a variety of other music throughout this huge club.. we still believe one of the largest in nyc

Miss A

One of the most amazing places I have been in N.Y.Full of history, incredible ambient and music .

Compass

The two-story venue has a wrap-around balcony and huge floor space that provides great views from every angle. Dance parties dominate the basement , while bigger names take over the main stage.

Marc Mayer

A well-booked venue. Waiting out front can, on occasion, be like a carnival haunted house. Instead of ghouls, it's 21 year old girls shrieking at each other about being cool and whose dad is richer.

Party Earth

Cover charges can run as high as $30, but with that you get access to every room in the club. If you’re worried about it, you can get ten bucks off by buying tickets in advance. Read more

Craig Austin

One of the better places to see a medium-sized show in NYC. Studio downstairs is even better.

Gabrielle Grudza

My favorite venue in New York! I always have a good time here, been coming for years for concerts and club nights.

Turan Yurdakul

Best night club in New York! All floors are incredibly enjoyable with the best rap and R&B songs. Right choice for having fun!

DJ Times

Now known as Webster Hall, "The Ritz" was one of the first clubs to incorporate video screens into the club experience in the '80s. Sonic Youth, Soundgarden, and GnR all played early gigs here.

CMJ

At one point in time you could have seen labor rallies, weddings, and lectures at Webster Hall. It's now established on New York's live music circuit, and a staple for CMJ Music Marathon attendees.

Stephanie P.

For a popular band or artist get here a few hours early if you really want to be up front by the main stage. Rabid music fans don't play :). Also, gets drinks elsewhere - PBR shouldn't be $9!!

Ilissa Gilmore

Not a bad venue. Unlike some places, I could hear the mic pretty well . A tallboy of Tecate was $8 here; at Rough Trade it's $5. But this is a bigger place, more space. I'd come back.

Ashley Kodya

Cavity search at the door and the main stage floor feels like its to to cave in yet it's where I've had some of my favorite nights and seen the most amazing sets. Also Alex English rules!

Roc Nation

Beautiful venue with 3 floors of crazy music and a different scene on each floor. They even roll out the red carpet for guests and you can’t walk more than 10 ft. without seeing a bar ! Read more

UpOut Events

Wolfgang Gartner will be in NYC this weekend and he comes ready to party. The Grammy-nominated producer will only be here one night at Webster Hall so make sure to catch it. Sat, 3/12, $25. Read more

Joe M.

One of the best concert venues in the City . Both upstairs and downstairs are ideal spots for a show.

Amber Tsai

New sound system ♡ Some nights, the open bar VIP section is worth it for the draaaanks.

Amber Gardner

Watch out for an Italian guy named Phil. Early 20s, diamond stud in left ear, cracked iPhone (though prob not anymore), from LI. He's at Webster Hall every Saturday and likes to steal girls' phones!

Pat Patterson

OVER-SERVING OF ALCOHOL . Be careful. Went here with my girlfriend and she got kicked in the face by a drunk girl who crowdsurfed forward in a crowd 5 times without being removed.

Toph Allen

I'm just a fan in general of places with gender-neutral restrooms—even if it is a byproduct of New York's insane space constraints.

JM Parveaux

One of the best sound system for a music venue in the city

Dianna H.

Don't worry... You're not THAT drunk. The floor actually bounces! Also, the drinks are pretty pricey so it's worth grabbing a few beforehand. It gets pretty crowded on the floor so pack light!

Marie La Rue

Mid sized venue on two levels. Spacious entry level area, good for drinks before going to the main room.

Vivian Vo

So this was my first time having a table here as it def makes the experience better esp. when it's an all ages event ..

Emmy Geraghty

If you're going to dance , the music is good- but you WILL get unexpectedly grinded on, ladies. Also try to get in with a promoter because its not even close to being worth the 30 dollar cover.

Ola Hawatmeh Dazzles The Crowd At The Olastyle Fashion Talent Show At The Webster Hall In The Marlin Ballroom .

Charlottes

Fun for dancing but they pack em in tight. Lots of waiting, to get in, for gig to start, to get a drink etc

L. T.

Each stage here is great. New sound system is fantastic, but definitely bring ear plugs - especially for downstairs!

Janice Taylor

Best spot to watch a gig at the Marlin Room is from the left hand side.

Karen Stephens

Digable Planets put on a solid show. The best part was watching the sound guy feeling it.

aneessa steilen

Great 90s show on Fridays! RSVP online and arrive before midnight for free entry and 2-4-1 drinks.

Gabriel Hayes

A classic music venue in NYC. Must see a concert here at some point.

Niku

Great multi level venue with a big sound system .

Jessica Placencia

It all depends on who you see/who's playing. Some nights are classy . Some nights are ratchet. Water is $5 but beer is cheap
