Commonwealth Bar & Stage
Calgary, Canada
It might not sound that big given the name, but Commonwealth Bar & Stage actually has more than enough room to function as two venues in one. The large stage and dance floor is used to accomodate both touring acts and DJs, while a separate bar — on a different floor — allows for two events to happen at once. Theme nights are also quite popular, with the Saturday night party boasting modern tunes playing upstairs and vintage tracks downstairs, Wimbledon Wednesdays featuring ping pong and live music, and Wonder Years Thursdays filling the converted warehouse with the sounds of the '80s, '90s, and '00s. Oh, and don't forget to hit up Tubby Dog - Commonwealth's own food stand - while you're there.
