ABOUT FLUID 510

FLUID510 is fast becoming THE event destination of the East Bay with multiple write ups & television features. With a Grand Opening featuring Dance Legend Crystal Waters, FLUID510 shows 100% Pure Love for the Town with a variety of events, an exceptional food program including Saturday & Sunday brunch & a state of the art sound & lighting system – including two projectors, QSC Pro Audio speakers and ADJ Jolt 300 for laser eye candy – to be shared with comics from the Bay & all across America.

This nearly 5,000 sq foot performance venue has a rotating art collection focused on local artists of color including art pieces from local artist Derrick Bell.

The space is called FLUID, in part because of the ever changing nature of the space from brunch destination to comedy shows to nightclubs to cabarets this venue hosts it all.

  • To help support local bars and restaurants, there is a two item minimum per person
  • 21+
