Avalon Hollywood & Bardot in Whittier

Amazing venue!

Went to a Taylor Swift party there. Loved the experience!

I haven’t been at Avalon for clubbing for awhile but occasionally attend concerts at this venue. Solid place with good sound and gorgeous balconies. Staff was friendly and professional, I appreciate it a lot. Drinks are reasonably priced and well made. Good place to have a night out.

Pretty old building but has vintage vibes. Parking across the street was $30 flat and the one adjacent was $20, cash only. Have an atm just around the corner if you need.

Avalon is my favorite hollywood venue to dance. Mainly because it has more space than other venues. Thats when all 3 floors are open though. Smaller events usually are limited to the bottom floor. Been coming here off and on for 16 years. Parking is safe and right across the street but expensive as usual.

We had a fantastic time here during the Ynot Cam Awards. Just love this place and the history of the building.

They get good acts if youre into EDM, tickets are either free (before 11, if you RSVPor cheap (usually under 50). Dedicated parking lot is nice. Bathrooms are clean, and rather large. Good sound system, large stage, stage lighting and display are pretty good.The drinks are expensive for the amount you get, they serve it in flimsy plastic cups. Decent alcohol well. Not the best table service, but its okay. The floor gets really sticky. If youre going for an EDM act bring a fan it gets hot. If I could give 3.5 I would. But Ive mostly had good experiences here so I rounded up.

I dont remember my first time at Avalon since I was so high. For the second visit I went to ARTBAT event and it was something great. I believe they had a reconstruction and the sounds system was amazing. The dance floor is spacious and the drinks were decent.

As a tourist i do Not recommend this Club. We were aware of thiefs so nothing went wrong, but if you think you are getting a Hollywood experience, you are wrong. Its feeling very scummy inside.

I got my phone snatched from my back pocket. I never really saw this coming. Other than that I liked how the club looked from inside very nice and clean.

The chairs small, and no space between them. And theyre metal without any cushions. Our employees were not so happy.

Watch out for your phones and wallets!!!!People come here just to pick pocket, the first time I came here someone stole my phone out of my bag and sold it to someone in Mexico! I’ve spoke to so many people that have had this happen to them due to this venue. Last night I was there but this time I wAnted to prove that we weren’t crazy. I held my phone on my hands the whole time while doing do a man litterally tried to take it in a way that was so disgustingly clever. I ran over to security to let him know what was happening and he immediately said show me who they are as if he gets this every night. The security pocket checked all through you guys and found 3 phones in each of their pockets. Literally 1 hour later while watching the stage i witnessed a guys hand in my purse, pushed him and demanded him to give back what he took. Luckily I had my phone in my hands still but I’ve never been so violated in my entire life. Thieves thrive here and I know someone that works here is in on this because I’ve never seen so many people loose their belongings in one night. Let alone for it to happen almost every night

Came here out of happenstance (found myself in an EDM event)Entry was around $25, security seemed laid back. They did not enforce a dress code. Came in wearing baseball hat, t shirt, jeans & vans. This place has 2 floors. Second floor was a small area playing random Edm music. Multiple bars with 3 just on the first floor. DRINKS ARE PRICEY. All in all it was a great experience. DEFINITELY would come back here again if they host EDM on Sundays or Tuesdays. Lol

Great venue, nice size for an intimate concert or event. Interesting interior and good location

This place is a fantastic venue. It always blows me away no matter the event. Ive been a decent amount of times and I always find something new! Spacious and well organized!

Incredible venue and super unique. I’ve seen so many good artists here and the staff is always friendly. It’s like a theater but you get to rave in, I love it 😆 Never had a bad experience here!

Avalon literally reeled us in with the promise they’d be open until 6am, and kicked us all out at 1am (before other bars even closed 😂what a joke! The one star is for Matt who’s the sweetest bartender ever. I cannot recommend this place to anyone looking to party in the Hollywood area, unless you’re down for $8 white claws

Very nice and elegant. Love the set up and lay out of the place. The food wasnt too great though🤔

sweet spot with many levels! great space to dance

Average music and it didn’t change all night !Ambience superbBut not worth the money

Love that historic theatres are sorta being preserved. Been here for several shows, first time being able to really see the full venue. AMFs are $20 now...

Its an old school theater. Not my favorite, but in all honesty Ive only been there for dance parties. Maybe its more suited for concerts. It isnt a very big venue but the bathrooms are nice. The old school carpet needs to go

It was a beautiful venue for the P-Valley Premiere. Lots of space. And the artwork on the ceiling in the main space is breath taking. So be sure to look up!

Cool free show, but bartenders force you to pay 5$ for a water bottle when you ask for a cup of water. Unsafe and poor business practices…

Security is terrible here went for emo nite and they really need to step up their game. Other than that the venue is nice

This place is dated, the seats were ripped up, had holes and were gross. Would not revisit. The staff was good though.

Super lovely theatre. You can order food and drinks inside and watch standup comedy. Nice settings. Btw, food aren’t overpriced.

The sound and lightning is amazing. They really did a good job for Darude, the finnish DJ that played there. Will come back!

Intriguing architecture and a classic LA venue.Not well ventilated.Good acoustics and seating/viewing.Small floor space to dance but you cant expect much more from a club.Great shows.

Place was pretty nice. Good lighting and sound. Great places to enjoy yourself. Drinks were a bit expensive (5$ water bottlebut hey so are the gas prices. Right?!. I went this past Saturday and saw Lil Jon.. definitely had fun.

came here on a Thursday to watch Neyo in concert. great clean venue. Great drinks and food too!

The venue is incredibly spacious. Drinks are the usual prices they would be at any other club. The employees are kind and don’t take any bs. Anyone causing issues or gets kicked out quickly.Great place to dance. Music is good and I always felt safe!

Need to change room because big gap on the entry door, noisy and cold.Pool music loud in middle of the night without any guest outside. I had to go downstairs to tell the employee.No sleep at all. Worst hotel experience.

The most arrogant, disrespectful, degrading bald man with glass works at the front of the door. He made us so uncomfortable and tries to be little people. Made all the women uncomfortable. We hid behind our friends. He sounded like an absolute crazy person. I’ve been to tons of nightclubs around the world. This one has to have hired the worst staff. Period. It’s truthfully humiliating a company wants someone like that to represent them. The djs are good and stage. But I won’t go back to be treated like that. Ever. Period.

Spacious venue with GREAT sound system. Ive been to clubs in confined spaces where the music literally deafens you but the music at Avalon had good harmonics it doesnt hurt your ears so much.

Great nightclub with state-of-the-art sound, lights, and people.

Pretty cool venue. Nice size theater. Not too big not too small. My one gripe would be small food selection and I got VIP which was nice and rope and seats but was further back. I think I was expecting the best view in the house. All in all great venue with a great staff.The event I went for was a Bon Scott tribute. Dean Delray, Marc maron and bill burr did stand up comedy then they play Ac/dc songs. One the funnest and funniest nights I’ve had in recent memory. Although I’ve been told this venue tends to host more DJ and club type events.

Plenty of room to dance on the dance floor. Security personnel was also friendly and understanding. Overall the club was clean and nice sound system.

We used this place for our event and it was fantastic. Beautiful place with three bars downstairs. Beer is fairly expensive here so keep that in mind when ordering for yourself and others. The interior is fantastic with comfortable seating in the back and an excellent stage area. It was just perfect for our event.

Absolutely AMAZING atmosphere & even better people! Truly a staple of the LA night life! A true MUST VISIT for all visitors & Californians!-@billythestork

First time at this venue and was kind of surprise about it because Im use to just go there after the nightclubs close and what can it be? 6 years ago since I visit that place and funny thing is first time I was sober and went there haha.However, fast to getting in and the service and bar wasnt bad.Only reason I went here was because it was my friends birthday and it was live band we checked it out.The drink was average price like most of the venues so nothing to complain about accept a great time! So you looking for chill place on a monday this is place to go but not to bring a date

Well, this one is definitely my favorite nightclub in LA. (I feel like I should mention from the very beginning, that I live in SF, and my clubbing standards are high. When in SF, make sure to check out Audio, Halcyon, 1015 Folsom, and The Midway (at least!). Now, to be honest with you, LA’s dance scene seems quite poor to me. And nevertheless...I guess that practically all major EDM events take place here. The sound system is outstanding, and the space itself is very, very nice. If you’re really into electronic music and looking for a decent nightclub in LA, check out this one first. Also, you might find Sound on Las Palmas Ave somewhat cool, too. Both are worth visiting, and if we’re talking sound quality, you’ll enjoy them equally. However, I can say that the most interesting DJs would normally play at Avalon. Anyway, tastes differ (I’m all about progressive, minimal techno, and psytranceso try out these two and decide for yourself... Okay, this is the most extensive review I’ve written so far so let’s wrap it up here. When I travel around the world and have just a few nights in one city, I have to rely on other people’s recommendations and reviews online, that’s why I’m so eager to help you make the right choice and be in the right place at the right time. Now, once you’ve checked out these two nightclubs, I’m pretty sure that you’ll become a regular either at Avalon or Sound. Have a GREAT night out!!!

This honestly became one of my favorite games to shoot at. Security was super respectful. And I literally had no issues. I’d definitely love to come back so if you’re a band that would like to hire me you can reach me on Instagram at:📷@Synthetic_Art or📷@Subatomic_HumanAlso, parking is a little pricey next-door but you can always find meter parking around the block. It’s Hollywood so i’d suggest to come earlier to get a great parking spot.

AVOID. I would give it zero stars if possible. The security guys were very rude when we arrived. They were extremely racist and actually were very close to legit physical harassment. Mind you I had been there for 20 seconds. One white guy tells me that he needs me standing in a line on the other side and I just stopped for 10 seconds to look at my phone so I can call my friends and another white man comes attacking me from behind and touching me to tell me to move. I would totally complain and do a lot more but they are not worth my time any more than this review.

This place was great! One of my vocal students performed there for an event called School Night and I was backstage warming him up. Security was good, the sound system was good, and the crowd was lots of fun! I will definitely recommend this place as a venue for more of my students to perform! ❤️🎶🎤

The venue is cozy and very personal.They have School Night on Mondays; 21+ free b4 10pm with RSVP.You can download the NextVR App on your Oculus Go or Gear VR and view the shows from the comfort of your home if you cant make it out to the venue.

If youre a night owl who enjoys not only entertainment fantasy and crazy ass tuunes.. this is your spot .. fabulous events no B.S. Good times across the board..

Attended an art show at the Avalon, and I must say it was an excellent venue. I loved the tiered sections and how the entire space was split up. The facilities were super clean, and the staff was impeccable.

Great venue. Clean, beautiful interior. Amazing sound and lighting system. No troubles at the door to get in, and a very liberal dresscode. Crowd is relaxed and friendly. Very close to the metro as well, which is a bonus. Looking forward to going back for more shows.

Infected Mushroom xmas eve. Awesome show. Huge club. Great sound. Very strange crowd. Eighty percent Chinese. Kind of a reverse take on the Jewish Christmas tradition (more so because IM are Israeli). We were in a nich by stage right. There was a garbage can behind the proscenium. Chinese girls kept going there to throw up. Old drunk Chinese guys kept trying to break into clumps of young dancing Chinese girls to dance with them. Kind of creepy. Lots of smoking in the VIP lounges next to the dance floor. Anyway, had a great time and would go back again.
