9:30 Club Tickets - About 9:30 Club

The 9:30 Club's name comes from its original address (930 F Street) and opening time (9:30 p.m.). It was formerly the Atlantic Club in the 1970s, where punk and New Wave acts began to establish themselves. But by the time it was reopened as the current venue, it had developed into a hothouse for independent artists. Minor Threat, Fugazi, Black Flag, The Police, X, The Bangles, and countless other '80s acts could be seen here.

As the D.C. hardcore scene came into its own, the 9:30 Club played an important role in fostering it and giving artists a place to find their audience - and giving audiences a place to find a voice they could relate to. Today, it continues to serve serious music fans by hosting up and coming alternative acts along with well-established names. Check out the concert tickets available up above.
