If you want a night out with good drinks and food while listening to the latest local performers and live special guests, visit these venues to get your fix of the best live music in Gainesville.
The high dive is known to host some of the wildest shows and events in Gainesville. This venue has brought teenage heartthrob, Aaron Carter and new time rapper, Curren$y. It also hosts the Spring Local Food Truck Rally and the drinks are never watered down. Tickets are affordable and it’s also a great place to sit and chat with your friends, the venue has an outside section that can really set the good vibes.
This venue is all about diversity. The Atlantic has Goth night, 90’s night, and a weekly video dance party where you can try to keep up with the dances on the screen. The Atlantic provides music for anyone and everyone. Drinks are cheap for any college student and I must say that the dance floor is enormous compared to most venues in Gainesville.
The Jam has gone back and forth about being sold for quite some time, but it will never close! The jam currently hosts UF’s Dance Marathon and is constantly having events to attract musicians to perform and dancers to dance.
