Things to Do at Mercury Lounge

Mercury Lounge is a small music venue at 217 East Houston St., New York, NY 10002, on the Lower East Side at the corner of Essex St. It is divided into two rooms: a front room off the street with a long oak bar, bathrooms and coat check, and a back room that houses the stage. Tickets come from the Buy Tickets icon on a show page, which takes you to the Ticketmaster event page; if a show does not sell out in advance, tickets are sold at the door on the night. Shows are 21+ unless otherwise advertised and a government-issued photo ID or passport is required. Entry is general admission, all bags are searched, sets generally begin 30 minutes after doors, and there is no re-entry.
