missing a star because I can't bring my LEDs in 😅 seriously though, I've seen some great acts here since 2015. Never any issues with parking. new LED features on the first floor are worth the visit

I have been going to 45 East for all my EDM and Dubstep concerts. I have seen a variety of artists from Benny Benassi, Flux Pavilion, CASH CASH. Local Artist such as JSTR (First photo) All bring a unique energy to Portland and make the music scene what it is. The security is good, never had a serous safety issue as they have an organized team that’s on top of things. Staff is friendly, drinks are pricyish but you can usually afford it. Overall, great place, coming from a guy that’s been there like 10 times now😅

What a fun venue! If you’re visiting, this is the EDM venue to check out. Security helps me feel safe, vibes are always positive. As a woman, I love venues that don’t allow “creepy” or unsafe behavior - I can even attend here alone, no problem. It can get a bit crowded, but the back patio and upstairs help change up the energy and offer a lot more space. I enjoy dancing to the main act upstairs. Solid bartenders get to you quickly and the drinks are good! What else can I say? Good staff, good music, good sound, good drinks.

Seriously, the best venue in the city. If you like electronic music, you truly need to catch a show here. The audio is amazing, the lasers are fantastic, they have the best acts. The staff is really great, and have a safety crew, and free water for people doing their rave things. I would come here every day if I could, as it's truly Disneyland for people who enjoy electronic music, but can't travel across the country for some festival. It's highly, highly recommended.

I have to work in the morning but the show is tonight. Can I get something like a doctor's note so my boss knows I had a valid reason for being late in the morning?

Westy Poprocks | Apr 19, 2022
Alan Spriggs | May 19, 2022

I'm sure if you present your case to the right promoter at the show with the right amount of incentives offered in exchange, someone would write you an absentee pass no problem.

Will Parker | Aug 18, 2019

I've been going for a while now to 45 East. I've never had an issue with it and none of the people I've brought with me (normally groups of 4-10) have ever had an issue with it. Not saying it never happens, but it's not common.

Is there really no moshing? Seems weird for an EDM venue.

Tegan Glenn | Aug 18, 2019
Michael Cooley | Aug 17, 2021

It's a really small space and you don't have to worry about anyone elbowing you while you're trying to enjoy the show. Plus, the security there is really good about crowd control just in case a mosh pit happens.

It's all street parking. I usually arrive when doors open to get the best spots. Don't leave any valuables in your car though because there have been break-ins.

Does this venue participate in the Portland Arts for All program that involves discounted tickets for Oregon Trail users?

Isabel Maree | Aug 18, 2018
Will Parker | Aug 18, 2018

They don't, but, if you follow them on Facebook and Instagram, they often have shows where they'll do $5 tickets in advance for a limited number. Looking at the list of participating organizations, theres a conspicuous lack of bars/clubs/alcohol serving music venues, so they may not be eligible to even participate.

So I left my card on an open tab on Saturday night 5/17. Due to a friend needing to vacate the premises immediately and to be honest it slipped my mind. I have no problem if them charging the card and the 20%. But my question is how to I get it back?

Shannon Akre | Aug 18, 2018
Will Parker | Aug 18, 2018

You can try calling them, or emailing them. While the venue isn't open during the week, they're fairly responsive over email in my experience.

Do they kick u out for bringing led gloves?

Daniel Muylaert | Aug 18, 2018
45 East | Aug 18, 2018

We would ask you to take the led toys out to your car and you can comeback in. Or if you didn’t drive to the club, we would hold them for you at the box office and pick them up on your way out. You will not be kicked out.
