Astoria Pub is a long-running East Hastings bar and events room with a strong punk, rock, alternative and indie identity. The room is built for live bands rather than background entertainment, and music events are typically 19+. Artists can bring volume, edge and a full club set without fighting the venue's personality. Bands rooted in alternative scenes should find the audience and atmosphere naturally aligned.
