Located in the heart of Downtown Orlando and right around the corner from The Social, Backbooth is a unique hideaway and a local favorite. The club has somehat of a vintage feel, featuring a medium sized standing area and a mix of tables/booths in addition to the bar. Backbooth also features a small balcony/second floor. Usually a mix between smaller/growing touring acts and local artists. In-house sound system is above average. A veteran venue in Orlando, this 350-capacity club definitely has an interesting vibe and is worth checking out.
