I absolutely love this venue, go everytime were in Denver. Their drink selection is unmatched by any other venue I've been to, they have numerous craft beers in draft, great specials, and tons of non alcoholic options like Capri sun and Yerba mate. The sound is incredible, but what else would you expect from a funktion one rig? They really support the hell out of the underground here. You really feel at home when you're there. It would literally be a dream for me to play here, so I'm putting it into the ether!

If you're going for bass music, this is the spot, no need to look any further. The best way for me to explain this is by the feel of the bass. Night before going to The Black Box I went to Ogden. At Ogden I felt the bass in my chest with a rattling wood floor. At the black box, i felt it from the feet up, my entire body. That should tell you enough, you won't be disappointed. Go.

My most favorite venue in Denver. Very intimate! Best sound system around. Thunderous bass that rattles your insides and clear mids and highs. The definition is NOT lacking. The drinks are priced fairly and the bartenders are very nice and attentive. It almost makes you feel like you are in the OG meow wolf when you are inside, and it's just very charming. Until next time!

I'm going to have a bit of storytime so I'll put general review first and those that want to stay for the rest, can. So I only went to one spot to dance so I'm not the best Denver club judge but this one was great. Intimate vibe with nice amount of dance floor space and great DJs. I got a rum and sprite for 8 bucks (which as a new yorker was amazing)and a beer was the same price. They had water for free! I know that probably sounds like a strange acclimation but water can be $8 at a NYC party. The attendees were also chill, at least while inside. Now for storytime. It was my last night in Denver for a work trip and I wanted to do as much as possible that night. When I first arrived I literally just came from exploring the red rocks and hula hooping at the amphitheater stage and I wanted to keep up the dance vibes. I was crushed when the security guy told me they weren't allowed no matter how skilled you claim to be. Luckily it was a sectional hoop so I disassembled it and got inside with the warning that "they better not see me use it". Fair enough. I brought silk fans also 😉 I get a drink and start to vibe. The dancefloor was the husk to the musics' soul, you could feel the heartbeat as the music vibrated the floor. I go all out dancing, not caring who's watching because I'm in another state, who's to judge? I have another drink and I'm ready to bend some rules, I assemble the hoop. I'm flowing to a couple of songs and I'm thinking maybe they see I won't do damage and I can keep going. Unfortunately not, someone comes up (I believe the manager)and gives me the face so I stop. They said the fans were fine (very grateful for that) so I used those for a bit. I started vibing with this nice couple who were killin it on the dancefloor and before ya know it, it was time to leave. I usually call my Ubers before I head outside but I wanted to enjoy the fresh air. I walk across the street, looked at the night sky and thought "wow a whole night out and not one creep". And then this guy comes over and compliments my dancing and said he was watching me all night. Could I come to his hotel for one more dance? I politely said no but thanks for the compliment. Then he asks again and again and now it's becoming weird. 2 guys come out and yell compliments from across the street and I contemplate asking for their help, but I feel the threat is low so I yell a thank you back and continue my strange encounter. He tells me his Uber is 1 min away so I say I'll chat with him until it comes but I'm not coming with him. When it finally arrives he tries to pull my arm and get me in the Uber with him. At this point I'm pretty stern with my no and even told the Uber driver "take him, I don't want to go with him and he won't leave me alone". To that the Uber guy replies "can you just close my door?" As we're struggling outside it. Thanks Uber. The guy who wants me gets out and closes the door behind him and the driver whisks away leaving him with me. For some reason I still felt the threat level was low enough to not run back into the club like some damsel in distress. There's other ways to ditch a dog. I realized this whole time I was a fool, I'll just book my Lyft. So I did and it's a 5 mins away, let's hope I don't have to fight this dude beforehand. So I fake entertain him with more convo and a false promise of coming back with him. Then I go to take a pic of the outside of the building (for memories) and I ask if he could take my picture. As soon as the impromptu photoshoot is over, he passed my phone back and my Lyft smoothly pulls up next to me. "You called your own Uber?" He questioned sadly. "Yes love cuz you weren't getting the hint, no means no. But have a goodnight". Yes I'm way too polite to creeps but I wasn't in the mood to get rowdy, I was having a good night. I opened the door to the Lyft and told him, "make sure he doesn't follow us" and we drove away. Security should be outside when a event is in the final hour imo. If you made it this far, thanks for reading and I hope you come and check this place out for yourselves!

The Black Box is a haven for anyone who loves bass music. With its powerful sound system and intimate, underground vibe, it’s the perfect venue for dubstep, experimental bass, and everything in between. The energy is always high, with a crowd that’s passionate about the music. The layout brings you up close to the action, making it easy to fully immerse yourself. 🖤👾
