$22 cocktails and the absolute worst sound system I have ever heard at an EDM event. It was just distorted treble turned up to 13. I left early.

I’ve visited quite a few times. There’s NO RE-entry. However it’s consistently a good turnout and diverse shows that come out!

I meant to write this review a WHILE ago but better late than never, I guess… My wife and I went to BNL to see Santigold Aug 22, 2024. She was pregnant at the time. Like, very pregnant, a week before our due date (lol)…but we really wanted to go to the show and we got our tickets last-minute. We arrived at the venue and got in line to go in. The security guard noticed her belly and asked how close we were to the due date. He then called down a staff member and they escorted us up the escalator through a different entrance. They handed us off to another staff member who then brought us to a VIP table where we had the option to sit for the show. Another staff person brought us water and showed us the closest bathroom (which was also the same one used by band members). We had a GREAT time!! My wife was able to stand up and move when she needed to and we were able to have a stress-free night watching a music artist that we really love! Every person who we interacted with (I wish I remembered names) was incredibly kind and thoughtful. I have told this same story to countless people and wanted to also share here!! Thank you to those BNL staff members for giving us a great memory before our big day. Our baby boy was born less than 2 weeks later on Sept 3rd and he will be 1 year old soon! :)

security is very rude, especially around a younger crowd. there was zero respect when going through security and then even more when we got inside. sitting at a booth and taking pictures and some random security guy came up and yelled at us asking how we got it in, even though we obviously went through security to get in? seemed unorganized and like there was no standardization for what could and couldn't come in for cameras, i guess the venue itself is nice enough, but i hate seeing this as a venue listed for my favorite artists because i know the security will be a pain

Bop to the top was super lit. Drinks not too bad!!

Last night I went to Bop to the Top at Big Night Live. I debated for days on whether I should take my sister with Down Syndrome. I am so glad I did. It was me, her, and two of my friends (in case I needed backup!). After waiting in line for an hour and dancing, we were greeted by Matt (a manager), who escorted us up the elevator and to a reserved ADA spot (we did not know they had this!). To our surprise, it was next to the stage. This gave my sister the opportunity to dance in front of the stage, while also allowing her to sit when needed (her stamina is not great) and escape the crowd. Had we not had this, we would have had to stand all night, and she would not have lasted the whole night. It also had close-by private bathrooms, allowing her to avoid standing in line and me to assist her more easily. Matt introduced us to three security guards named Ray, Amauris, and Wilmarys. They were some of the most incredible, sincere, and compassionate people I have ever met! They treated her like any other person (not the aww, she has Down Syndrome look), but at the same time, watched out for her like a little sister. No one was going to stand in front of her, crowd her, push her, or anything. They made sure of it! This allowed me to enjoy myself and not be constantly worried, but also for her to be as independent as possible. At one point, the smoke guns went off, and she was startled, covering her ears. I have never seen people jump so fast to check on her. It was truly amazing. We also met another manager that night, Nick, who, with the help of the security guards above, got her on stage! This was such a magical moment for her! I could not thank all of them enough for everything they did to ensure a fantastic night for all of us (especially her). I would not think twice about bringing her to another show here. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

The show was great but the venue was terrible. Staff treated everyone like shit, one guy trying to pickup on some drunk girl. Drinks were horrendously expensive. I spent $42 for two cups of ice and a splash of alcohol. A can of High Noon was $20. We went in 2 hours early and weren't allowed to step outside for a moment of peace since the first DJ was destroying my ear drums.
Overall, not the worst experience but I don't think I'll see another show there.
Awesome July 4 weekend at BNL, shout out to security for keeps us safe and the lines moving Fritzy, and the two gentlemen at the main door, they’re about the business without being rude or mean. Another great night at a BNL venue

Nice venue, kind of small and cramped during big shows

See San Holo here, it was an awesome concert and solid venue

Horribly overcrowded.
