Zebbie's Garden

618 DC is a second-floor downtown venue focused on underground electronic music and alternative programming. Techno, house, trance and DJ-driven sets are the clearest lane, though the room also reaches into funk and soul. All-ages events are part of the mix, giving underground artists a chance to reach listeners who are often shut out of standard 21+ club nights.

BANANAS at BERHTA is the campus's large open-air stage, with a published capacity of about 2,000 for festivals and day-to-night events. Current programming leans electronic, house, deep house, and live electronic, but the scale is large enough for broader concert production. Many current events are 21+, with access varying by show. The outdoor format makes this a very different proposition from a club room: artists need enough sound, visual identity, and stage presence to carry across a large open crowd. For performers operating at festival scale, BANANAS offers a substantial DC platform where production quality and audience draw matter as much as the music itself.

1831 Bar & Lounge is a steampunk-inspired downtown room that runs on late-night club energy, with house, hip-hop, rap and Top 100 music in the mix. The 21+ crowd is there to socialize and move, so DJs need to favor momentum over subtlety. The room makes sense for performers who are comfortable treating the night as a party rather than a concert.
