Live Music in Portland Tonight
You can catch live music in Portland any night of the week: a typical night brings 10 to 20 shows at rooms like Mississippi Studios, Polaris Hall, Star Theater, Revolution Hall, and Dante's. Most tickets cost $15 to $30, and Keys Lounge on Killingsworth runs free jazz three nights a week. Tonight's full lineup is below.
The list shows only tonight's shows, pulled from venue calendars this morning, so a thin night means the rooms are quiet, not that the data has a gap. Every row links to the show's own page and the venue's ticket link; check there for sold-out status before you head out.

“Cheap night of genre-hopping dance music at Dante's, details are thin so go in without expectations.”
Good to know
Where can I find live music in Portland tonight?
Check venues like Crystal Ballroom, Hawthorne Theatre, and Dante's directly, or use the list above — it aggregates Portland's live music calendars daily and filters to tonight only, with real prices and start times.
How do I know if a Portland show is sold out before I go?
This list refreshes daily rather than showing a static roundup, so a show that's wrapped or sold out drops off — but ticket status itself lives on the source page, linked from every listing above.
What are some low-cost places to see live music in Portland?
No-cover and low-cover nights recur weekly: jazz at Keys Lounge on Killingsworth, theme karaoke at Dante's, and small-room shows under $15 across the city. Filter the FunPDX calendar by Music plus Free or Under $15 for the current lineup.
