The Roxy Theatre

West Hollywood, CA 90069
(310) 278-9457
Opened in 1973 as one of the staple Sunset Strip rock clubs, The Roxy has hosted a slough of well-known bands including David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Brian Wilson, Nirvana and other acts. Today it hosts bands running from traditional Hollywood rock and roll to more enigmatic acts like Rumspringa and Street Drum Corps, including both locals and national headliners. The large, high-ceilinged one-room venue has good acoustics, relatively ample seating, affordable drinks and average ticket prices, though it can’t escape the lines and cramped parking typical of West Hollywood venues. Its small upstairs nightclub, On The Rox, is another popular destination for late-night partiers who want to relax away from the noise downstairs.

Classic Sunset Strip
Keeping rock and roll alive
After 30 years
