Nightclubs in Raleigh

Kings is Raleigh's most creative entertainment venue — a downtown bar and music hall combining an extraordinary craft beer list, vintage arcade games, and a small live music stage in the most playfully innovative entertainment environment in North Carolina's capital. Raleigh's growing creative economy and its enormous NC State and Duke student populations create consistent demand for the kind of creative entertainment experiences that Kings provides with exceptional style.

Lincoln Theatre is Raleigh's most beloved independent music venue — a downtown NC institution presenting outstanding rock, indie, hip-hop, and alternative acts for the state capital's growing arts community. Raleigh's remarkable transformation from a government town to a major technology and creative hub (Google, IBM, and Red Hat have major operations here) and Lincoln Theatre's exceptional programming create a nightclub of genuine North Carolina creative economy significance.
