The Scene
Don't be misled by the bold neon façade facing party-going pedestrians on Whyte Avenue. This pit-stop for alt-rockers and preppie popsters alike may be perched in a bustling part of the city and offer cushy surroundings to cool your panting dogs, but chances are, you won't be off your feet for very long, because it’s all about the music.

It’s Live
Featuring a "serious music" itinerary, the Urban Lounge attracts local bands bent on honing their chops to draw some regional attention. It's also a choice stopover for road acts from big-name talents to indie groups on their first national junkets, making it one of Edmonton’s premier locations for live music.

The Vibe
Other nights, an eclectic music mix wavering between hip-hop and alternative to pop and dance ditties keeps the floor hopping. And for those who like to watch something a bit more physical, a big-screen TV shows some heavy-duty canvas-kissing on WWF Smackdown during the week, as well as monthly pay-per-view grappling events.
