From the venue’s website.
A historic pillar of North American alternative counterculture since 1991, QXT's Night Club in downtown Newark delivers an authentic underground sanctuary. Featuring three distinct music spaces—the Main Floor, Area 51, and The Crypt—it showcases legendary weekly rotations of industrial, EBM, gothic darkwave, synthpop, and 80s alternative anthems.
An irreplaceable East Coast subcultural sanctuary. The multi-room subterranean layout lets you drift between heavy industrial rhythms, 80s new wave, and dark techno in an intensely welcoming community.
21+ only with valid ID. Inclusive community space with zero-tolerance policy for harassment.
