The Big Dirty

The Big Dirty is an immersive bar and music venue in downtown Eugene, with a 270-person capacity room covered wall to wall in custom artwork and LED lighting. It hosts live music, DJ nights and recurring events such as salsa dancing, karaoke and themed dance nights, and its cocktail list leans on named drinks mixed with vodka, rum, tequila, bourbon and gin, plus a set of zero-proof options.

The bar opens at 8 PM every day, with doors at 8 and shows at 9, and it runs a daily pre-funk happy hour from 8 to 9 PM. Some shows are 21+ and entry prices vary by event. Bookings and marketing questions go by email. The venue is at 844 Olive Street, and the space was recently announced as closing after a farewell show in December 2024.
