Antone’s Nightclub is a live music nightclub located at 213 West 5th Street in downtown Austin, Texas. Originally opened on July 15, 1975, on Sixth Street, the club has relocated several times over its history and continues to operate as a downtown Austin institution. It was founded by Clifford Antone, and ownership has included partners connected to Austin’s music community, including involvement associated with Gary Clark Jr. and partners. Capacity is approximately 500–600 for standing-room shows, with the exact setup varying by configuration.
The venue is one of the most storied blues and roots-music clubs in the United States and is widely known as “Austin’s Home of the Blues.” Its history is deeply tied to Stevie Ray Vaughan and the Vaughan brothers’ early careers, and the club has hosted and championed blues legends including Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Albert King, Albert Collins, and other touring and Texas blues artists. Today, Antone’s Nightclub presents local Austin acts and touring artists across blues, roots, rock, soul, R&B, Americana, indie, special events, residencies, and showcases.
The experience at Antone’s Nightclub is defined by close proximity to the stage, a historic club-scale atmosphere, and a long connection to Austin’s identity as the “Live Music Capital of the World.”
Antone’s Nightclub is located at 213 West 5th Street, Austin, TX 78701 — in downtown Austin, within walking distance of the central business district and the Red River / Sixth Street entertainment areas.
Transit: Downtown Austin is the most transit-accessible part of the city, and Capital Metro bus service covers the area around the club. For guests already staying or spending time downtown, walking from nearby hotels, restaurants, and entertainment districts is often practical.
Driving and Parking: Downtown Austin parking is primarily paid garages and lots plus metered street parking. Antone’s Nightclub does not have a large dedicated venue lot, so arriving early or pre-booking a garage spot is advisable, especially on busy weekend nights when garages fill.
Rideshare: Rideshare through Uber or Lyft is one of the most practical options for a downtown club show. Drop-off and pickup are common in the area, though post-event waits and surge pricing are typical on busy weekend nights in the entertainment district.
Nearby Accommodation: Downtown Austin has extensive lodging within walking distance, including hotels throughout the central business district and near Sixth Street and Congress Avenue. Staying downtown makes it easier to walk to the venue and avoid late-night parking searches.
Antone’s Nightclub has a single-room club layout centered on the stage, with an open standing floor and bar areas. Understanding the general-admission flow helps because most guests choose their spot relative to the stage and bar after entering.
Entrances and Access: Entry is at street level from the sidewalk in downtown Austin, with ticket scanning, ID check, and door entry handled at the club.
Seating Levels: Antone’s Nightclub is primarily organized around a general-admission standing floor facing the stage, with limited seating available for certain shows. Most fans position themselves based on how close they want to be to the performance and how much space they want during the set.
Getting to Your Section: For most shows, there is no assigned section in the traditional sense. Arriving early helps secure a spot near the front of the floor, while guests who prefer a little more room often position themselves farther back or closer to the bar areas.
Antone’s Nightclub offers full bar service typical of the club, with alcohol available to patrons of age. Because the venue is an intimate standing-room music club, plan for bar lines to be busiest close to showtime and between sets.
Antone’s Nightclub is surrounded by downtown Austin’s dense dining and nightlife scene. The Sixth Street entertainment district, the Warehouse District, and numerous restaurants and bars are within walking distance, making it easy to plan dinner, drinks, or a post-show stop near the club.
Antone's Nightclub maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.
Bag Policy: Small bags are typically permitted with inspection at the door, while large bags are generally discouraged. Policies can vary by event, so packing light helps keep entry moving.
Commonly Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside food or drink, and professional or recording equipment without authorization are typically restricted. Items deemed a safety risk may also be refused at the door.
Entry Procedures: Expect ID check for age verification, ticket scanning, and a bag or security check at the door. Arriving with a compliant bag and pre-downloaded tickets speeds entry.
Antone’s Nightclub is part of a deep Austin live-events market, with downtown clubs, historic theaters, major concert rooms, amphitheaters, and sports venues all contributing to the city’s year-round entertainment scene.
Antone’s Nightclub ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from local Austin acts to high-demand headliners and special events.
For local and smaller touring shows, tickets can often be found in the approximately $15–$30 range, giving fans an accessible way to experience live music in one of Austin’s most historic clubs.
For mid-tier and notable touring artists, tickets typically fall around $25–$50, depending on the act, day of week, and overall demand for the show.
For high-demand headliners, special events, residencies, and showcases, tickets can reach $50 or more. Because Antone’s Nightclub is an intimate-capacity venue, popular shows can sell out quickly once demand builds.
Buying earlier is advisable for high-demand acts. With a small-capacity room, the best available listings can move quickly, and prices for the strongest remaining options often rise as inventory shrinks closer to the event.
