Liquid is, simply put, a unique example (outside of major cities on the east and west coasts) of the “next generation” in live music venues. Just as movie theaters are evolving into offering higher end customer experiences – so too are music venues. With our state of the art sound and stage lighting systems, beautiful club-like interior decor and affordable VIP options (that are Madison-priced vs Chicago/New York/LA) — Liquid is a great place to see a show or to celebrate your next special occasion in style!

Over the past few years, Liquid has become nationally recognized as one of the top college town Electronic Dance Music (EDM) venues anywhere in the country.
