Dante's is located at Southwest Third and Burnside in the Entertainment District of downtown Portland, Oregon. The club was opened in February 2000 in a turn-of-the-century building that has formerly housed a brothel, a flop-house, an early 1980s punk rock club, a mongolian restaurant, a speak-easy and a gambling den.
Over the last decade, Dante's has grown into much more than just a live-music venue, largely due to the support of loyal patrons, staff and talented artists. The space has evolved from 3000 square feet to over 7500 square feet, and is in a constant state of upgrade and remodeling. The club is described as organic, in that it is able to accomodate just about any type of act from rock to DJs to cabaret and circus to fire dancing.
Dante's offers a classic, dark, lush atmosphere with award-winning pizza, and one of "the best damned bars on earth."
Thousands of regional, national and internationally-known artists and performers have graced the stage at Dante's, dropped by to wind down in the Limbo Lounge, or warmed themselves in front of the open fire-pit.
It's never a dull night at Dante's...

Thanks so much for being my friend here on MySpace! I'm a new hair wear designer from Nashville and just trying to get my name out there. I'd love for you to stop by anytime to give me your feedback and critiques. And, if you should ever need a unique hat or hair accessory for a photoshoot, costume or just out clubbing, please think of me. My new website is www.bluzombie.com and I'm still working on it, but you can see most all of my new stuff on here as I put it here first. Thanks so very much!
