Dang, too bad this place is so terrible..........
They attract the best drag queens in the country so I went to the Witches of Oz show recently. I had been there a couple of times previously as I love Nina Flowers too, but this place has a lot of room for improvement!
The layout is fine, the bathrooms are big and clean, and they reorganize the internal layout depending on the event.
But, we had to wait in line for an hour to get in to wait in line for half an hour for drinks! Lame!!! Plus, some friends were drugged there recently and I just don't trust that place. The lines for the bar are absolutely ridiculous. And it seems like a hazard as there was only one small entrance/exit and they packed in hundreds of people.
The show itself was pretty great, they even had acrobats swinging from the sky. Too bad it started late and ended early. The stars were great, but I spent most of my night waiting and that was a bummer.
I came from out of town for a bachelorette party and was blown away by this club!! The service was outstanding (I totally felt like a celebrity for the night) and the music and atmosphere made me feel as if I was in Las Vegas. Â I felt very safe and would highly reccomend this spot to others!!
Review Source:This place is SO much fun! As an out-of-towner from SF I was so blown away by how spacious and roomy this place was! There are two major dance floors (hip hop and mixed electric-pop). They also have an outside area where you can smoke and just take a break from dancing. Bars are all over the place, so getting a drink is relatively easy.
Cover: ~$5
Ages: 18+ on certain days
People are really chill and genuinely enjoy dancing.
This place is off the beaten path. It's about 2 miles from downtown Denver and can be difficult to get to without a DD. Lots of cabs outside so it's definitely accessible for visitors.
Great club, Drinks cost a bit more but worth it, best Drag shows in the country, would be 5 stars BUT there are not enough stations to get drinks when they get busy I waited a half hour in line to get a cocktail on a saturday once. There is always a bottleneck getting out to the smoking "patio"(alley). This will be my first pridefest I WON'T be at Tracks in 10 years because they are bringing in the douchebag Jeffery Sanker for the pride party. That guy is the biggest asshole promoter worldwide, Tracks promotes a great party they do not need that trash involved with their club.
Would have been 4 stars because of wait times for drinks and the smoking section but because of the promoter they have for pride it is only 1 star! avoid this place on pride saturday but you will have a blast any other night.
This is the second time I have been to Tracks! They have an incredible First Friday where it is lesbian night! They start off with country music (not a fan) and in another room later they play dance music! It is wonderful to see so many age groups in one place! The drinks are a bit pricey but I guess that is normal for clubs! Will def be going again!
Review Source:Best gay nightclub I have ever been too, Nice rooms, good speakers, usually good DJs. I love their drag nights, And there seems to be a decent amount of diversity there. they also have a pretty good heated patio. Bartenders And other employees aren't very friendly though. And even on First Fridays I get hit on by more guys than girls:(
Review Source:They have a freakin' 'Retro Room' where they play old school J-Lo, Christina Aguilera, and all the hits I never actually listened to in high school but can now ironically call my "jams" when I'm on the dance floor in my late 20s. Â Seriously, if I'm going to go out dancing this is the place I'm going to go to as opposed to some douche-y LoDo club or any place playing house or dub step. Â Furthermore, if you want to get your drink on drinks are free until 10PM.
Review Source:This is my favorite night club in Denver. It's not the best one I've been to, but it's not bad at all. Always packed, especially on thursday, which is 18 and up night (and they only have two rooms open).
Drinks are not cheap, but they're pretty good.
This place is awesome for dancing. Good music, good people, lots of space. My favorite night is first friday, of course.
Oh yeah, it is a gay club, so keep that in mind...overall, everyone is very nice, open minded and welcoming.
I ended up coming on a bear night (Bear-a-cuda I think they called it), which is not really my scene at all, and still had a great time. The venue is very spacious, the beats were dope and I appreciated the Yelp check-in shot (which in turn reminded me to write this little review!)! Â I can't wait to come back when I'm in Denver next to check out the First Friday.
Review Source:Tracks you will always be my favorite gay club...especially on First Fridays! I lived in Co most of life and recently moved to Hawaii and I must say there is nothing like tracks!
AMBIANCE/ENVIRONMENT: They have two main rooms and when needed the back room can open up which makes for a great dance room! They have lounge chairs in the hallway that lead to the gender neutral bathrooms. Â The bouncers are friendly and so are the bartenders. There is also an outside area in the back to take a breather when needed.
THURSDAY NIGHTS: I started going to Tracks before I turned 21 so back then I could only go on Thursday nights. $7 cover for under 21 and $5 cover for over 21.
It gets pretty packed, they have two dance floors the main one which tends to play techno infused music and the second room, my personal favorite, plays hip-hop.
FIRST FRIDAYS OF THE MONTH: Every first Friday of the month they open up the back room and a huge crowd of mainly women of all ages comes out! There is a variety of music and it gets packed so come early! Â
LAST FRIDAY OF THE MONTH is DRAG-NATION: Last Friday was my first time attending, we bought the tickets the night before for $10 otherwise they were $12 at the door. Drinks on this night are supper expensive: $6.50 for wells and $4.50 for beers. The show was great but a few more chairs would have been helpful. Not my favorite night but very entertaining. Â
PARKING: There is plenty of free parking lots and when the lots get full there is always parking on the blocks surrounding it...even if it means walking a few minutes before getting to the long line.
I will miss you again Tracks...until next time!
I've been to many other clubs being a DJ and can say that they all have their niches and clientele. One thing after being in and around clubs and raves for over 10 years is of course how polite people are.
Gay clubs seem to be the most polite as people in them don't have anything to prove, nor to hide, or to feel ashamed about. Straight clubs as people refer to them seem to have a bunch of guys who are probably the most rude to other guys as I've seen, and incredibly nice to women (of course, the end of the night goal for them, duh!)
Tracks isn't at all like that. Maybe not the best sound system in the world, but it's very loud. Drinks are very strong, and cover is $5-7 which you really can't beat. The staff are all very professional and courteous not trying to be overly super cool and superiour making you wonder if you're even good enough or nice enough looking or wealthy enough to enjoy your favourite genre of music or DJ live. I've seen many clubs shut down as a result of many factors, but much of it due to security that's overly umm (in)secure. Â
First Fridays are great and usually packed by 11 with more of the younger crowd in the rather small first room as you enter the club. The biggest room is the more retro not quite trance/house/ electro pop room.
It's really nice to be able to go to a club, dance your ass off, and not be hit on by every overly horny guy in the club. I love going to Beta and The Church for the talent and of course Beta for the sound system (Yay Funktion One!) But since I'm a lesbian, getting hit on by smelly men isn't my idea of fun.
Tracks also has some of the best drag shows I've seen even though I've only seen a few. Oh and of course even though lesbian I can appreciate a very nicely sculpted male body, and I can tell you that some of the men who frequent the club spend loads of time working on themselves. It's also nice to see men who aren't insecure with whom they are, unlike most straight clubs.
This club is a great club, and I think people have gotten spot on with the 4 star rating. This club is not perfect, but it is a good club to go to.
1. The people are polite, and don't actually cause drama.
2. Everyone in the club are themselves and don't seem to put up a front
3. The music is pretty good
4. It's a great place to dance, because everyone is dancing! So you just cannot stop dancing!
5. Free for first 50 people on Tracks Thursday! And it's not too expensive to get in unlike other clubs!
6. If you don't want creepy guys bothering you (if you are a girl), then come to this club. You will get some creeps hitting you up, but not as much as other clubs :)
Although this club has many great aspects, it also has some downfalls
1. the music is extremely loud and very limiting. They seem to only play trance, techno music and it just takes over the whole club. There is a hip hop room though, but that room is just too small.
2. This club gets extremely crowded and there is no room to dance on the dancefloor. There are people who carry their drinks to the dance floor, so they end up spilling the drink and breaking the glass...which is dangerous..
3. The club is a little small, and when it gets crowded, it's just not that fun anymore...
4. The bathroom, is pretty gross. Even though it is the cleanest bathroom I've seen in a club, it's still dirty to me.
If you decide to go to a club with a couple friends, this place is a good place to head to, especially if you are 18 and up and have nothing to do on a Thursday night! Get there and get in for free and enjoy :)!
It's a pretty normal / average gay club....great to go with friends. However I've noticed that the music in the main room is pretty much entirely trance / dance beats that sound the same and go on forever....not my favorite music to dance to but apparently most of the other gays love dancing to that kind of stuff. These days I really only go for special events / holiday parties.
Review Source:Noise level = very loud. Â Drinks = strong. Â Good for dancing = yes. Â Yup. Â Actually noise level was only moderately loud - I could hear my friends and hear upon leaving (mostly).
First, a disclaimer - I have at no point in my life been a club guy, so my experience is limited. Â I really liked Tracks though - nobody with attitudes, actual polite people, people who seemed to be happy being there, no need to look not-to-be-messed with if you accidentally shove someone while dancing, walking around or otherwise.
The sound my chest massaging at the front/main floor - excellent people watching, mesmerizing light shows if you're in the right state of mind. Â The rear floor was playing a sometimes good sometimes uninteresting mix.
We were there on a Saturday night, strangely it wasn' packed. Â But this is no complaint - personally I had/have no desire to wade through endless seas of dancing sardines.
Bottom line - I would be happy to suggest this to my group of friends looking to go out to dance!
Decided to hit this place up when the music at Meadowlark was just not flowing well together; Â thanks to 3 or 4 rotating djs that just had way too different an inventory amongst themselves. Â Seeing as how music was my main motivation, Tracks came through quite well that evening with great songs that flowed well together and did not make me roll my eyes (read=not too top 40). Â
I will have to give an extra star for the crowd; it was a pretty friendly group of people whether they were gay men, women, or their allies. Â For a straight guy there with a girlfriend I am not sure who was getting more attention but I think I ended up with more #s that night! Â Oh, and who on earth was that long legged naughty nurse on Friday the 29th? Â Both me and the girl were interested, just sayin'...
Simply phrased Tracks nightclub is fun. I feel like Denver is a very liberal and cosmopolitan city to live in. Really it's a very exciting time to be here, and Tracks embodies a lot of this fun cultural flavor!
I have been a couple of times now, but most notedly I enjoy the drag queen shows. Vibrant colors and great costume/stage presence make this a fun show for anyone of any gender or background. It's very crowd engaging, and as a woman I found the whole thing still very empowering.
The hungry kitten says: Have some 5 star dinning then head on down to tracks with your friends to watch the drag queens strut their stuff!
Still fun after all these years. I still miss the old location for all its advantages to layout and flow.
If you're annoyed by kids, don't go on Thursday. If you aren't, definitely go on 18+ night. It's 90% such.
This incarnation of Tracks has a horrible flow issue, but once you squeeze past the main dance floor, the bartenders work quickly. I nearly forgot about the booty music room around the corner. Not my cup-o-tea, but it's a good alternate to have if you're not feeling the main room for obvious reasons. The smoking patio out back is nice. They should consider adding a cover and heaters for when it rains though--there's nothing nicer than enjoying a moment with friends outside, while hearing the pitter patter of rain coming down. Plus a girl's got to smoke, right?
I'm caught in a bad romance...with Tracks.
This is my favorite slightly skeezy Denver dance club--a great place to get your top 40s fix and STIFF, CHEAP drinks (betcha thought I was going to say something else...)
Now if only if the bathrooms were a bit cleaner and the door policy a little tighter ;-)
What a night what a night.
Ain't nothing like a night of Drag Queens and Dancing.
The show was a blast and the ladies rocked the stage. I just wish there was more room to dance along with them.
As soon as the show was over the place pretty much cleaned out and then the joint was your dance floor!
The cover fee to get in was $10. I wasn't drinking any of the strong ass drinks they were pouring but I was kept hydrated in the heat of all the hotness with complementary Tracks bottled water. Hmm I hope it is not bottled on site. kidding...kidding
Had a blast and felt I got my $10 worth. But being a single girl in a room full of hot guys that don't care if I've got the moves or not blows!
Dorothy, we're not in WeHo anymore!
Whilst visiting my home city, my gay husband got my straight one and me on the list, so we were whisked in the side entrance sans cover. We were there with a straight friend (who we dragged to JRs last year), and did a lap before settling back into the main room for stiff drinks and a few shots. If I recall, 4 really strong drinks only came out to $28!
I've been here before, but for some reason the lights were half way up and gave the place a weird vibe... kind of like the place was a Costco by day, club by night. The crowd was super diverse... lots of straight people, people in flip flops (and not just for the spring break theme), people in sweaters and speedos, etc.
Parking is free and plentiful on the street, but that means idiots can block your friend's car in. NOT COOL. We Austin Powers-it and got his car out, but not without a struggle and sympathetic words from passers by.
JRs is still my fave, but Tracks is a great place.
Valentine's Day at tracks = never again.
Aside from being waaay too damn crowded, every song sounds the damn same. I understand that techno is the "bees knees" as the kids say, but it gets old after about 10 minutes. Even the side room was playing techno until midnight! Whyyyy?!?
In times past, I've had a blast. They played a good mix of 80s 90s and hip hop in the side room- something you can actually dance to. The people are pretty friendly and don't have that pretentious vibe going on. The cover sucks. Decent drinks.
On another note, dancing on the pedestals is F-U-N!
Nothing says welcome to your mid-thirties quite like an alley full of Tracks patrons singing Happy Birthday to you at the top of their lungs. Three times. And then following it up with hugfest with a bunch of outrageously handsome gay men. The people there were SO NICE. If you got bumped while being passed or while dancing, people actually said excuse me, politely. In a club? What? No sneer? No acting like it didn't happen? I must be getting old if peoples' manners made the biggest impression on me. Moving on.
The dancing was incredible, the people watching was OUTSTANDING, and the drinks poured were strong. Holy cow. I must say thank you to the men with the beautiful physiques who opted to remove their shirts while dancing. Â To add to the positive, the parking out front was a piece of cake, they had a coat check, and the cover was only $5. About the only annoyance I had was regarding the rampant and enthusiastic use of the fog machine.
Everyone seemed to be totally enjoying themselves, and really, what more could you want? Crazy fun. I can't wait to go back.
My friend said I had to go to this club on a Thursday night. Well we went and I'm not sure what I was expecting but this wasn't it. The line was at least 30 people long at 1130. Luckily my friend knew the doorman and we went right in. It was LOUD and packed. I wish I had earplugs. There are 3 areas, a hiip hop room, dance room, and outside smoking area. All were super packed. The music was typical gay and the crowd was very young. It is a week before school starts so that might explain that. I could only hang for so long because of how loud it was plus a Miller lite was $5, cover was $5.
Review Source:What a great club to go to especially when you're out of town and have low expectations for other smaller cities' gay scene. This place has great music, atmosphere, and some a very presentable crowd ;) This is the first place I'm stopping by the next time I visit Denver. The only drawback is that it's a short drive from downtown, but worth it.
Review Source:It was pretty much the <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2FBOMB.com&s=ac71b33d32e90570e9c0d70edf9b4cac5f20e98e10501794c62801370f5dd3f7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://BOMB.com</a>. Â Coming from San Francisco, it's always nice to get away from the usual Castro gay mecca and see what else is out there.
Well...this place definitely delivered. Â Me and some crazy friends went here for Halloween night, and we couldn't have been more satisfied. Â The place was DECKED out as if it were the set of Beetlejuice, all the bartenders were dressed up as characters from the movie, and there were 4 different rooms each having their own DJ.
It was the setting for an AMAZING time.
AND...they played a lot of Lady Gaga. Â They earn one star just for that.
To top it off, the drinks were extremely reasonable.  I remember (which  is surprising that I actually remember) buying three drinks and three shooters for a grand total of $18.  Yes, $18!! Cray cray crazy.
This is a must go for any rainbow warrior that visits the mile high!
So, I left my bf home Sat night to hang with my feminine/straight-in denial best guy friend. Â (it's ok, he came up with the title) Â He just likes to go because of the music and the big dance floor...
Anyway...
We went to Tracks and had the BEST time. Whether your straight or gay, it is just a fun fun time. I recommend this place to everyone who likes to dance till your sweaty and make a fool of yourselves on the dance floor as much as I do.
The drinks are always well made, the music is great, and it's the best place for great people watching.
Its kinda the leader in terms of where to find a large dance floor but if you ask me Tracks sold out. Â I used to go to the original and it was the heart of the community, this place is like any other straight club in Lodo without the really great DJs. Â I used to work here so I have to say that when they lost their art designer they lost the last bit of vibe they had going (not me I swear)...the staff is friendly but I'm bias, the prices are creeping up I'm paying what I would in California so if I know I can go to another bar for less I will. Â They lost the entertainment edge so forget Drag shows, dance shows etc. Â ex. the Madonna parties are no where near where they could be. Â I don't ever see any DJ names like I used to that were worth going to dance to. Â In all the space looks good but in terms of originality it is a disappointment and has not lived up to its name.
Review Source:Okay, so Track used to be THE club in Denver when it was located behind Coors Field where those tacky condos now stand. Â It mirrored Tracks and Nations in Washington DC., but that was about 10 years ago and now I am making myself sound old. Â The new Tracks is just the old Dream with MINOR changes.... I was not impressed and somewhat annoyed with the whole experience. Â
Denver used to have some awsome gay bars/clubs, but now it's just gotten tired and old.
does anyone have any new ideas?
Best dance club in all of Denver. Â Tracks is located in a dreary industrial backstreet area adjacent to downtown Denver, but don't let that scare you away. Tracks is a huge warehouse style dance club, that caters to the gay community. Â On a girls night out we ended up at the club and danced the night away to awesome 70s & 80s dance music. Being straight girls it was so great not to have to deal with creeps hitting on us (homophobes go somewhere else!). Â It was so much fun to be surrounded by gorgeous half naked men and feel free and just let loose, dance and have a good time. I've been to all of the hip dance clubs in LA & NY and this one is the best! Â The only downside is parking & the line, it's street parking and if you show up after 9:30 the line to get in wraps around the building, but once you're in it's worth it!
Review Source:All I can say is that I love it! Â It's quite different from Tiger Heat in LA where it's packed wall to wall and almost impossible to get around. Â It's the first time I've danced since I moved and I had a total blast. Â
The patrons and staff of this lovely place are nice and extremely friendly...they made this fruit fly fall in love with the club. Â I am definitely going back!
I was here during Gay Pride weekend so the vibe may be a little different than it is on other nights. Â I was pretty impressed with the overall club though. Good sound system and great DJs spinning. The crowd was friendly too, which is a nice change from some of the more pretentious clubs I have been to in other cities. My only complaint is with the security in the VIP room. They kept checking our VIP passes when we were already in the VIP area. Maybe they were trying to not so subtly hint that I didn't look cool enough to be there.
