Ok this is a great intimate place to see a concert or really anything on the stage. My only complaint is the lack of seating. That being said, you can always get VIP seating but it will cost you. Supply and demand I guess.

All in all cool place to see your favorite band.

Had the worst experience here.
There was supposed to be a #LilWayne concert that was scheduled for 10pm Saturday 21st March 2015. that didn't happen. We waited from 7pm until 3am the next day with no #LilWayne insight, it was a waste of my time and money. Revolution Live advertised the concert to start at 10pm. False advertising right there!!!!!!!
I drove all the way from Naples to Fort Lauderdale for nothing. I'm highly disappointed and am hoping to get a refund for this.

Been many times. Most of the time I have really enjoyed shows. Place gets very crowded and maybe even oversold sometimes. One negative was a few years ago, saw The Cult and the sound system was so bad that I left- horrible! Otherwise I like the place, it's cool inside and there are basically good views of the stage from every angle. Usually sound quality is good. Badfish rocks the place every year, don't miss them when they come to town!

We went to a teenagers concert there this week and there were hundreds of kids and no direction from the club. The kids are lined up all day and kids that came in last minute were allowed to go in first. Security didn't get there until 4pm when concert is at 630pm. They act like they are doing you a favor or like you have to coddle to them. WE ARE THE PAYING CUSTOMER> never again!

Love this place but sometimes the sound is nooooo good. Saw City and Colour a while back and forgot to comment on my experience. I had been waiting for them to tour in the US again. Sooooo excited. Left after a few songs because it sounded awful :( Saw American Football recently. Sound was better but still needs improvement.

This is the place to be! I went here in 2011 instead of a graduation party and had the time of our lives and was pulled on stage. Although they don t allow video record cameras- it s still a blast. And they have merch for sale right when you walk in almost like your on your yourself because it s so intense. The music is loud and myself being a lighting tech it s a joy. Included is a balcony. Very intimate very entertained.

The energy in this place is electric! We had such a good time I'd love to go back more often, but we came from Charleston SC and 8 hours is a long haul. Keep it up guys, Ft. Lauderdale is better for having you!

Went to see JJ Grey, but left early. So packed that you couldn t even find a place to see the band. Very hot, crowded, terrible acoustics, hard to get a drink and god forbid their was an emergency and had to be evacuated. May be a good place for a mosh pit but definitely not if you want to see a chill band.

There are only a few good places to watch the show in the entire venue. Get in early to post up on the rail by the soundboard. If the show is sold out. It's over crowded. The drop floor pit is always crowded and with only the 2 sets of stairs in and out, it could be a safety issue.

They over sell tickets and go WAY over capacity, stuff everyone in small areas, only turn on the pans for the stage not the crowd, $6 for water outside while you wait HOURS and when the say doors open at 7 its really going to be 815, and water is $5 inside, and any water bought outside has to be thrown out before they will let you in just to make you buy more. Awful place that has no regard for saftey.

Been here a few times. Just got out of a Dance Gavin Dance concert and got some great footage from the second floor. Protip: Stay away from the loudspeakers on the second floor. They can really damage your hearing permanently. Aside from that the show was great, quality was great, venue overall was great.

I loved this concert place, it's only two stories though. But the music quality was great and the crowd was very lively. They sell alcohol and snacks, and band t-shirts. I hope to come back again to see sabaton the next time they are in concert here.

Went to a show at the outdoor venue. Sound was pretty decent for outside and they had a pretty cool set up. Nothing to eat besides a vegan stand and street tacos however. No ATMs at the outside event. Could not leave and come back in either so I was pretty much hungry and had no cash to buy anything at the merchant tables. I also do not drink alcohol so other than red bull the choices were limited. They were giving out free fireball though so that was cool if you drink. 4 stars because the venue itself is cool and now I know to bring cash and eat ahead.

The is accessed through stash The Whiskey Bar in the Revolution, America's backyard complex the vendor range isn't huge but eclectic very nice jewelry and dream catchers and other such things macrame food jewelry stickers a multitude of things that are really cool and fun good to hang out to food trucks food truck in a trailer actually I think.

The venue is very cool as there is a nice downstairs area with 2 bars and an upstairs area with another bar. From the upstairs you can look down and see the bands playing from even a back stage view, and there is also an outside balcony with another bar. Basically no waiting for drinks and cool views of the show.

The site is great in terms of location, but I think they should invest in improving the acoustics of the place. Every time a rock / metal band performs on the site, the din within it sometimes makes it hard to understand what it sounds like even though you know each song. I suppose other types of music are better heard, but metal is not so much. Tips: if you like to drink, come drunk because it is very expensive to drink inside. In front of the site for the tri-rail in case it is more comfortable. Parking in front costs about $ 25.

Spacious, clean, well laid out venue with ample bars, floor space and upper mezzanine for enhanced viewing. Good sound system. Any seating areas are targeted towards VIP customers on the assumption that no one else might wish to just sit.

have seen many shows over the years here. all their surrounding establishments are so much better than this one. the only place you can hear anything is if you're in the pit or the balcony. forget about being even a couple rows back on the surrounding floor. i saw Rainbow Kitten Surprise here last night. very mellow band. saw that band at the bowery ballroom in NYC. what a good experience in comparison ... and the bowery is just as dingy and old as this place. thank god the tickets were only $25. stayed for 5-6 songs and walked out. could only hear a low rumble of bass and nothing else. not to mention the heat!!! sorry guys, a few fans aren't going to do it. this is south florida and you know a large crowd is coming... you NEED sufficient air conditioning. invest the money. the doors were closed... not kept open... there's really no excuse. and stop overselling tickets!! you can't move around in there! standing cheek to cheek with another sweaty person, seeing and hearing nothing ... not my kind of fun. not worth the hassle of stepping over the homeless drunks to get there.

We saw Simple Plan here. It was a great show. I thought the huge bar shelf when you first walk in was so cool! The stage room was entirely too hot for all of those people to be in there though. We had to move to the back by an open door just so we didn't pass out from the heat. Not our favorite venue, but not the worst either.

While I have been at this venue for concerts several times before, this time the experience was horrible. The place felt incredibly overcrowded. Definitely there were way more people than I have ever seen here before. The heat at this place, specially with it packed to the hilt, was unbearable. No air flow from anywhere. Since this is a general admission show, if you go alone and decide to get some air, you will loose your place. Just as it happened to me. The high temperature at the venue forced to go outside, as I was not feeling well due to the heat. To my surprise, I was not alone. Several people were experiencing the same thing. Since I could not get back to my original location, and could not find a suitable one with a good view, I decided to leave halfway thru the concert. I am an avid concert goer and like to get get in the middle of the crowd for the best viewing experience, if that's where it can be found. So I definitely don't have claustrophobic issues. However this time.... The heat was just too much. This is a shame, as I had been waiting for months to see Sabaton fine back to the area. Instead I have unpleasant memories of a place I used to enjoy for concerts due to the small, intimate size. Will I ever go back after this? I seriously doubt it.

Mad Decent Block Party is always amazing here and will have me coming back every year. Inside it is rather small but nice and clean. They do allow smoking inside though but the place doesent smell like smoke.

This is one of my favorite venues in all of South Florida. Not too big and not too small of a venue, it is just right!

Lots of great shows come to this venue and plenty of parking on-site or garage next door.
