The venue is so deceiving from the outside. It looks so sketch, BUT once inside you totally forget the outside. I went for Abba Night and it was genuinely such a great and fun experience. We heard parking was tough so we ubered. The dj for abba night was incredible. He played banger after banger. Very fun venue. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Dope venue!!! Small, but big enough to hold a dope event with alot of good vibes there. Sound was proper and calibrated! (No distortion) & lights were setup perfectly for the space and drinks weren't too expensive. I'll be back for sure!😎

went to see se so neon :)) some things to keep in mind: VERY sketchy area!! i would not plan on parking near the area, especially if u have a nice car. if you can park further away, theres a paid parking area a couple miles from the venue if you want, and uber the rest of the way there. even better if u can, have someone drop you off. BRING EARPLUGS! they dont carry them in the venue (i suggest they do! it gets very loud ) the sound could be better in all honesty, the bass is poorly mixed and the mics arent great, tho obviously you dont really care about all that when you're there to have a good time. but if thats something you care about then there it is~ security guards are insanely nice!! most venues (especially in LA) have the nastiest guards who seem to have the shared goal of ruining your time lol, not these guys! super kind :) everything there is overpriced, $7 for a bottle of water???? yeaaa no, but its what can u expect from any venue right. if you're lucky, there was a street hotdog stand after the show right outside the venue and u can get some water there for less money. not sure if this was just my show or if its the norm, but they didnt take card at my show for merch! have cash, venmo, or paypal i believe. and the obvious is to bring your ID the inside of the venue is really nice! theres a whole dining area and everything :) all in all it was a great experience, dont let the sketchy area drive u away haha

The venue is very spacious and holds a lot of people. Arrive early and stand near the stage to enjoy your favorite performer up close.There are a few chairs and tables to side of the stage if you don't want to stand but again limited and to the side of stage. Alcohol and even water is sold at a very high price. Neighborhood is very sketchy and should arrive early to find parking closest to venue. A person attending the venue had their car window broken so definitely don't leave valuables in the car.

Alexid Swag | Aug 31, 2020
Ravulous Ravinsky | Aug 31, 2020

Probably not. I went to a show a couple wks ago (John 5) Security checked ID in line before entering IF you wanted to drink. They issued wristbands for drinkers.

Is this venue following Covid restrictions aka masks requirements and/or proof of vaccination?

They don't normally let you "hang out" inside by the exit door. The security there is on point so you should be fine. Just stay right in front. I've walked to 1720 from another venue around the corner and I was fine. Just be alert as you should be wherever you go.

do we actually have to show vax cards or can we bring negative tests and just wear masks

jbeezy | Nov 4, 2021
TamrieAnn Cagley (TamrieAnn) | Nov 4, 2021

I went two weeks ago. They handed out masks at the door but didn't ask for either proof of vaccine or negative test results. It may be changing with the new indoor mandates. It's probably way less hassle to just go get the vaccine so you don't die because you went to some concert, just saying.
