Venue Location and Layout
Located at 741 South Kilby Court, the venue sits at the southern end of a small street that begins at 700 South and approximately 350 West. While the venue is primarily an indoor space, it features an outdoor patio and allows for the opening of side walls depending on the climate and season.
Strict Venue Regulations

Security personnel reserve the right to perform pat-down checks, search bags, and revoke entry for various infractions, including intoxication, disturbing hygiene, engaging in hate speech, or belligerent behavior.
Ticketing and Payment Policies
Kilby Court has implemented several logistical policies to manage crowds and transactions. The venue is now a cashless facility, meaning all door ticket purchases must be made via card or mobile payment. Furthermore, the venue does not operate a physical box office; instead, all tickets must be purchased online prior to the event date. While tickets are generally non-refundable unless an event is canceled, the venue allows for ticket transfers via email confirmation to the door staff.
Accessibility and Lost Property
The venue operates as an all-ages facility, though capacity restrictions currently require all attendees, regardless of age, to possess a ticket. For those with physical disabilities or special circumstances requiring designated seating, the venue management encourages contact via email to arrange necessary accommodations. For lost items, the venue provides a pickup service at the location after 7 p.m. on operating nights, though they note they are not responsible for items left behind.
