The Hot House is a unique entertainment venue, bringing in musical acts from around the world. The shows here are not what is offered in the rest of the city. The facilities are nice and usually not too crowded. New Year's Eve here is fun as well. The crowd is a nice mix of people.

PROS: Unique Acts
CONS: Don't always know what you're going to get

Groovy boho space
