I had such a good time here!…read more The employees are polite and chill. I had to reduce my party number drastically the day of and it wasn't a problem. I put a deposit down previously, but my party members had the option to pay for their karaoke time individually the day of. I got extra time for my grace period since the other people in my group were running late. I still encourage anyone that comes here to show up on time because you never know if the venue has any back to back reservations. The rooms are equipped with some sort of low neon-colored lighting to set the vibe, and deep, soft couches. The only con that I have is that the rooms can get stuffy and the one air vent that was in our room didn't provide us with enough ventilation. For songs you can use the Singa app or look up your instrumentals on YouTube. The room that I was in had four microphones for singers to use. We weren't able to adjust the volume for Singa/YouTube playback, or adjust the volume on our microphones but we made it work. My friends and I have already brought up returning.

I love singing so this gave me life even if it was only me and him in the rooom. We did some duets and sang our hearts out. Culver Karaoke really is a good time. It was packed. The price was RIGHT. You can buy snacks. The staff was super kind. It's a great space and concept. The room was just the right amount PLUS there were 2 couches so you can fit enough people in that room. The parking lot is small with limited spaces BUT there's ample street parking. We had a bit of technical difficulties but they made it right and gave us extra time. There are many songs to choose from.

More info here: (http://brightbulbideas.com/santamonicapier/twilight/) I first came here for their Salsa Concert. The show started at 7 and was still going strong after 10pm. There were tons of people who showed up to dance. The had a dance floor right on the pier! Overall fun time. Other concerts were just as good. My favorite was, Australia Rocks the Pier. There are many other concerts that are coming up during the summer. Most of them start at 7pm. And the shows usually go on for about two hours. I would suggest that you come early. Find a good spot to sit at. Bring a picnic blanket. A picnic basket...And have a picnic on the pier while watching live music. It doesn't get any better than this. There is also an option to picnic down below at the beach. It's a little darker there. But there are tons of people who go there too. From down there you're able to see the concert on a large jumbo-tron that they have. Parking for this place was pretty easy to find. I usually parked at the parking structure attached to the Santa Monica Place and walked down from there.

Every summer, there are concerts that take place at the SM pier. Admission is free, so there is a…read morehuge crowd that comes here. I recommend parking at SM Place, or any of the parking lots adjacent to the promenade. Parking near the pier can prove to be a nightmare during the concert times. Getting in is not hard at all. The line can get long, but it goes by fast. Security is provided by SMPD and LA County Sheriff's. The cops were very nice, and I appreciated them keeping any trouble makers out of this event. The concert itself was enjoyable. The group playing was great, and expanded my horizons as far as music goes. There were props all over the place, which were great. The lighting could use some improvement, as well as the main band's timing (they were 40 minutes late). But all in all, it was a good time and a good way to end the summer.

An awesome and fun night out! We were taking a walk on 4th Street in downtown Santa Monica and…read morehappily discovered SportsFest. The batting cages caught our eyes through the window, but once we went inside, we discovered you could also play tennis, lacrosse, cricket, and padel. Each cage had virtual screens with scoring (think Top Golf, but with racket/paddle sports) and you can rotate between all the sports in one reserved lane. There's a bar in the back giving it a Lucky Strike-ish feel and there's also a foosball table and pool table. The two of us played a quick half hour just to try it, but could have easily played for over an hour plus and had a full-on date night here. Great place for groups, big and small, and glad to have a fun entertainment space in downtown Santa Monica!

You can switch off between each sports and absolutely no experience or skills are necessary. We were told golf will be added in the future but not sure when that will happen. There are also several arcade games, foosball table, pool table, AND skee-ball machines!! How cool is that?! The place also has a small private room and a bungalow, along with a back area with 2 bars where they also serve food. Upstairs: there's another batting cage and an area to just chill and hang out. There are a bunch of tv's throughout the place, I believe they sometime have sports/watch parties. This would be such an awesome venue to host a birthday party or work/group event. Overall: great place to hang out before or after spending time at the nearby Third Street Promenade and the Santa Monica Pier, which are both only a few minutes walk away. Friendly staff is also a plus! Parking: several public parking structures (#1-7) are located nearby that are all within about a 5-minute walk. Parking Structure #1 is probably the closest one, just down the street. About a 2-3 minute walk.

My daughter took me here after the world cup watch party a couple weeks ago. The establishment…read moreitself was fun. It's an all ages bar/club with NO COVER CHARGE. Which is very rare these days. It's a 2 story house that has been turned into this bar & nightclub. They have a dj as well. Several rooms and patio seating as also. The crowd varied in age. I even met another mother who was there with her daughter. So when I say it's an all ages establishment I mean it. The bar staff was nice and there were multiple bars to service the patrons. I don't think the bars were ever over crowded. The djs and music was solid. Variety of hip hop and pop and edm music was played. Plenty of room to dance. The one issue we ran into was security. Minutes before closing my daughter's boyfriend approached her on the dance floor. A drunk and over zealous young lady attacked him. She pushed him with 2 hands in his chest and screamed at him to leave my daughter alone. Moments later security approached HIM and asked him to leave? When I interjected and tried to explain the misunderstanding security told me they didn't care. That's when I told this kid I was old enough to be his dad and this is my daughter's boyfriend. I explained to him the female should be kicked out not him. He did nothing wrong. But we would not cause any problems and would just leave anyways. The way security handled the situation was diabolical. Their job is to protect the patrons and listen to them when there is an issue. Not ignore than and not care to find out what the truth of the matter is. For this I have to 1 star this establishment.
