Philadelphia Nightlife

Trocadero

Trocadero Review

This spacious rock-and-roll club in Chinatown occupies a former burlesque house where W. C. Fields and Mae West performed. A lot of the old decor remains: mirrors, pillars, and balconies surround the dance floor. Most every up-and-coming band that's passing through Philly plays here to an under-30 crowd. On other nights local DJs play for dance parties. On Monday it hosts a popular movie series.
