Whisky a Go Go Concert Venue

The Whisky a Go Go, located in the heart of West Hollywood on the Sunset Strip, is a world famous music venue.

Opened in 1964, the Whisky a Go Go is believed to be the birth of the rock and roll scene in Los Angeles. It featured the first headlining performances of many now-famous bands, such as the Kinks, the Who, the Doors, and Oasis.

In the 1970s, as punk rock and heavy metal became more popular, concerts at the Whisky a Go Go included performances by the Ramones, the Misfits, Blondie, Mötley Crüe, and Van Halen.

Today, the Whisky a Go Go still presents the biggest names in rock/metal music, while also showcasing up-and-coming bands. In addition, the 500-person venue also features a full bar and restaurant.
