    Disclosure
    Zachary S.

    If you're coming to Yelp for venue reviews, I don't know what to tell you. You're either gonna go to the concert you're eyeing tickets for or not. Like Black Sheep said, "the choice is yours". The Concourse Project is sneakily one of the best venues in Austin. Granted, nine times out of ten, it's a dance show hosted here, but it just feels a league above other venues. I'll get this out of the way: you either get to the venue extremely early and luck out with a parking spot, fight the outrageous Uber fees to try and leave the venue with everyone else, or pay $20 to park in a gravel lot next door. It's kind of a lose-lose-lose, but I'm picking $20 parking every time. Outside the tin can of Concourse are the numerous lines to get in. Security is thorough but moves quickly and is more friendly than your standard venue security guard. Once inside, the venue is split into two spaces past the entryway: the outdoor courtyard and the main space. The courtyard is great for a breather, grabbing a drink, or checking the numerous shops hanging around. Inside lies the main dance floor. Huge speakers hang on the wall, and an incredible lighting rig and projectors span the back wall and the ceiling. Like all dance venues, once the music starts, it'll never stop until Austin's curfew. Since residing in Austin, I've been to three shows here: a Boiler Room, Jamie xx, and the great Disclosure just last Thursday. I always love how open the dance floor is at Concourse. There's a ton of space, even at a sold-out show like Disclosure, to dance and groove. Drinks are your standard concert price, and it'll always hurt your wallet to get a drink at any venue, but it is what it is. It's not exorbitant; it's your venue average. I also enjoy that Concourse uses SeeTickets vs. Ticketmaster, so the fees aren't as ridiculous as other Austin venues. The sound in any area of Concourse is great, but the closer you get to the stage, the better and more alive the crowd seems to be. It also doesn't feel like there are a thousand phones in the air at any point because most people are just vibing and living their best life. It's a great venue to go with your friends or make instant friends at, but if you ever ride solo to Concourse, you can still easily lose yourself to the music and the bass. One last thing: After the first time you go to The Concourse Project, you're gonna want to come back. The best way to keep coming back is by protecting your hearing. Foam pieces are cool, but I recommend investing in Loops or EarPeaces, especially at a bass-heavy venue like Concourse, because if you want to keep having a great time, you've got to preserve your ears. Trust me. RIYL: GETTING LIT

    There is something special about The Concourse Project that is transformative and a blank slate to experience any music journey that is being held at the venue. Parking is probably the only sore spot for the space but I feel like if that is the only thing to harp on then it isn't that bad of a situation to worry about. What makes this venue not only badass in the city but one of the top venues for EDM is how easy they transform the space based on the artist's needs. I've been here when they've made it a 360 bar, full production setup with the artist at the back, and a B2B setup. The visuals and audio here honestly compete against venues I've been to in Ibiza, Miami, and Vegas. As someone who loves to have a late night bite after a few drinks, I am so thankful that The Concourse Project has a food truck out back for you to get your grub on. The last show I went to about a week or so ago (NGHTMRE) it was a golden chance to enjoy a plate of quesabirria tacos. Holy crap where they everything and more. They were so delicious and you can decompress and have a break outside. Whether you live in Austin or are visiting, if you have the chance to check out a show here then you absolutely have to!!

    One of the few places I feel at home. I come here every few months either with a VIP or regular ticket. It is safe, clean, great drinks (pricey though), and always nicely decorated. Each time I came, the layouts were always different which I like. I appreciate the security staff and body scanning to make sure nothing dangerous is being brought in. Can't wait for more shows this year!

    Saw Deorro a couple weeks ago here and it was such a cool experience!! The venue offers a lot of space inside and even has an outdoor patio with some food trucks. The lighting and screens on the roof were incredible and added to the ambiance. The staff and bartenders there were also friendly. Keep in mind that they only have limited free parking spaces on site but also offer a lot next to the buildings where they do charge you $20-$22 dollars. Also, I don't know if it was just the sound system here or it's a universal experience but if you stand right in-front of the DJ stage it's really hard to hear what they sing/or what their songs say since it's like 90% bass. When my bf and I moved towards the middle and back of the crowd we ended up having more fun since the sound quality was better there. Something else to note is that if you plan on seeing the artist or performer you bought tickets for they don't tell you there's 2-3 other smaller DJs performing first. We expected that Deorro would play around 10:30- 11pm since doors opened at 9pm but he didn't end up playing until about midnight. We were patient but we wish we could have known. However, we had a great time overall! :)

    Not being a big EDM fan I'd never visited this place, but since it's in my neighborhood I was curious and decided to catch a show. It was great in all aspects - from the sound to the lighting to the friendly and professional staff. They host world-class EDM acts - for example, Tiesto played there in May 2025. Definitely a place for night owls - when I visited, the headliner didn't take the stage until midnight.

    Wow. Let's just say I've visited the concourse twice this year and am ready to return in 2025. Already bought my seismic 2025 tickets! I went to Concourse earlier this year for Sara Landry all nighter, then decided to take on a three day festival in November. What an incredible venue! This festival is top notch. The venue is laid out really well and is nicely spaced. I love the upstairs area where you can overlook, amazing lights and space. Soundsystem was on point. Got to see so many hard techno greats, and old-school greats.

    We had a really great time enjoying desi beats by Indo warehouse at the concourse project. As someone who is mildly claustrophobic, I appreciated the spacious venue with some very cool light effects and good acoustics. The AC was on full blast even though it was a huge hall so we didn't get too sweaty. There are a few couches in the adjoining lounge where you can chill and check out local vendors. They also have a nice patio area with food trucks for late night snacks. There are a few different mixed drinks at the bar and ciders or beer in can, no cocktails.

    Now that live music events are a legitimate "thing" again, and given that I have been to several electronic music shows and festivals this year, I feel compelled to review this amazing venue. In the course of the world reopening, The Concourse Project has become one of Texas' premier dance and electronic music spots, and that is with good reason. Before I go into any details, I should be transparent that I am coming off the heels of a multi-day electronic music festival ("Seismic") held here, and it will be hard for me to rate and review this place without some degree of bias slipping through. That said, here are a few reasons why I believe this place is so ideal. -Location: First, the obvious, it's in Austin. But there is more to it than that. If you are like me, and cut your teeth with full immersion into electronic music culture in the early and mid 2000's, you would know the Austin area is where it has always been at in Texas. Another positive on the location is its proximity to both downtown, and the airport. For the touring DJ, this has to be a big bonus as they are usually in-and-out of cities fairly quickly. -Venue: It's basically a big ass decked out warehouse. That's cool for a few reasons: 1) It makes it ideal for large crowds; 2) It is reminiscent of the "warehouse party" scene that has been so prevalent throughout dance music culture. Plus, the place is just super cool! -Lineups: Check out their website and see some of the upcoming headliners. Big names, but quality local and international artists and DJs. A lot of these folks are not playing regularly at other big cities like Houston, or Dallas, but they are coming here. Lastly, I have to say they appear to be managing the place fairly well. It appears to be well-run, and that becomes more obvious when you interact with the staff; they are actually pretty friendly, which is refreshing compared to what one might be used to experiencing at other clubs and venues. I regularly review their website to see who they have coming here next. Looking forward to visiting again to see some of my favorite electronic music acts and making new epic memories!

    Living in a neighborhood close to this place sucks. No one wants to hear the damn bass so loud it rocks the houses. Very selfish and rude.

    TL;DR: I did not expect the food to be SO GOOD, but WOW, I WILL BE COMING BACK!…read more Food: + Boneless Chicken Karaage ($15) was well worth the price! The outside is so nice and crispy, while the meat inside stays tender. + Chicken Sando ($14) was interesting -- not necessarily one I would order again but not bad. The kimchi pairing with the sweeter sauce and chicken just was not my favorite. + Drunken Noodles ($15) was also delicious and probably my favorite dish of the three. The portion size is perfect for sharing, although I do wish there was a bit more meat. The noodles had a GREAT texture -- nice chewiness for sure. Seriously wonderfully done, I could've shed a tear at how much I enjoyed this meal. Service: Great for anyone with social anxiety, you can just read the physical menu or online version and then use Apple Pay on your phone. Super easy experience. Ambiance: Since White Tiger is also a bar, it is understandably loud. Just keep in mind it will be difficult to have a full-on conversation while eating though. Otherwise, it's a lovely place on SoCo. There is an outdoor patio in the back with live music.

On the drink front, the only White Claw flavor available was pineapple, not ideal, though the bartenders were friendly and the atmosphere has real potential. With the right crowd, this place could be a lot of fun. Now, the food. I'd heard good things, so we ordered. I'm not sure those people were sober when they said that. The fries were genuinely the worst I've ever had, and I don't say that lightly. The pork sliders were okay but on the dry side, and my friend's burger landed in the same "just fine" territory. Nothing memorable. To be fair, maybe it was an off night. The bones of a good spot are there. Nice staff, a vibe that could really come alive with a fuller house. I'd probably give the drinks another shot, but I'll be skipping the food menu next time.

The first part of my review is about the show. It was incredible! I've seen Willie a few times but never for the 4th of July picnic so this was definitely a bucket list item. Each band gave a stellar performance. I was blown away! Now for the next part of my review. The part where I talk about the venue itself. Let me tell you I was so worried because I read so many horror stories online. The gates were to open at three but got delayed about thirty minutes because of rain. My pet peeve is that it wasn't updated on the website. Minor issue. We took an Uber there and back. Upon arrival, our driver was confused (even though there were cones and guides) but we made it through without a hitch. We arrived at 2:20 which would have been perfect timing if not for the rain. We managed to find a dry spot to sit and chat with other folks. Once the gates opened we got through smoothly and quickly. Getting there when we did was actually perfect timing because as we went through the gates we could see the entry line stretching for at least 1/4 mile. We were able to get food and drinks straight away because we were one of the first people in. Bathroom, no lines. Fast forward a couple of hours and bathroom lines, food lines, and drink lines were stretched for what seemed an eternity. It was a big show, sold out. Lots and lots of people, lines are going to happen. I would just suggest getting food and drinks immediately to avoid the crazy lines or maybe throw some snack bars in your bag. All in all we had a good experience.
