The Public Bar Live Venue
The Bars
Our Four Bars
Public Bar Live is equipped with all tools for a good time.
There are four bars: one underneath the stage, one near the stairwell, a rooftop bar, and another on the second-story space. The renovation includes opening up the space for 150 drinkers overlooking Connecticut Avenue NW.
The Mezzanine
Our Mezzanine
A mezzanine level upstairs is catering to luxury bottle service, featuring a glass railing overlooking the stage below.
The stage was built high so that Mezzanine ticket holders have prime sight lines. Perfect for exclusive parties for a public show.
The Stage
Our Stage
The 24 foot stage is built over tiles and perfectly placed for an amazing sound system.
This live venue makes a full house concert feel like a close experience for everyone no matter how far you are to the stage itself.
Rooftop Dance Floor
Our Rooftop & Weekend DJ
Our heated rooftop dance floor combines a lively atmosphere with an extraordinary view of Connecticut Avenue, making it one of D.C.’s most prominent rooftop venues. There’s nothing like sweating it out on a cool D.C. night, so come and join us for an evening you won’t forget.
On the weekends, take in the sounds of the DJ from the dance floor, or enjoy bottle service at one of our tables.
