Why go

The Nines is a 21+ rooftop bar and club in the heart of Deep Ellum, open Thursday through Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons. Weekend programming leans on resident DJs — DJ Imperial D and DJ Maxavelli anchor recurring nights like Imperial Nights and Silky Thursdays — with R&B, hip-hop and Top 40 sets running until 2am. Early birds get the best deal: happy hour runs 8pm–10pm Fridays and Saturdays with $6 frozen drinks and drink discounts, and there's no cover before 10pm on weekend nights. Sunday is a two-act day, with an afternoon open mic and artist social (No Script) followed by the free-entry Sunday Funday After Party. The club also hosts the annual Launch Dallas music conference events each November. A stylish-casual dress code is enforced, and only physical, non-expired government IDs are accepted.
