The intimate soundscape of this venue is amazing. Came here to see TDH -- The Dear Hunter for their Sunya tour. Very friendly staff, and everyone had a good time and the crowd was well-behaved . Drinks are at those 'surge prices' however, I clumsily tripped on the stairs and spilled my full $16 beer and staff was kind enough to refill my cup free of charge. The merch line spatially can be organized à bit better. It's a weird line that wraps around from the balcony to the ground stage. It's ripe for line skippers, but it's mostly unintentional because people are truly unaware where the line starts. Thankfully , there are staff that aggressively police the line to ensure total fairness . read more

Despite it being one of the closer concert venues and live houses to me, I've never been until recently. Really cheap parking nearby, but you have to download an app, so make sure you have good connection. Lots of extra steps but it was only $2, so not bad! Despite circling around, it was not as easy to get parking like the other down town city concert venues that we've gone to, but no biggie. It was literally right across the street from the venue. We went to go and see the Japanese visual kei band, Jiluka, and people were lined up almost 10 hours before the concert started (vibes for SoCal way different than that of NorCal), so arriving 2 hours before the concert started, unless I shoved myself and moshed to the front, I knew it was cooked, but I got a really good spot on the second floor balcony and the staff was nice enough to point out where to stand to get a great view. Restrooms and the merchandise tables were all on the second floor. The back of the first floor was a bar and in the entrance to the side was also a bar too, I think. Security is way tighter here than all of the other 3 venues I went to to go see concerts during the week, so I'm sure shenanigans have occurred. No canned drinks in certain areas, no chains (definitely warranted this warning since lots of people dressed alt for this show and had to go return things to their cars, etc.), and no re-entry after the concert was over, so we couldn't get the Chiikawa Jiluka freebie that someone was passing out. Boo! The concert stage is bizarrely in the corner, but the sound quality was nice enough. I was definitely able to hear the vocalist better at this venue than I was at the NorCal stop, but the lighting was definitely better at the last event. Even though I didn't risk it in the pit this time, I walked out when people were still there and if I was there during the concert, even with my elevated shoes, it would be much more difficult to view the stage than at the other venues that I've been to. It definitely got super crowded and unlike the other venues, there's also a gap between the crowds and the stage, so security was definitely making sure people weren't crowd surfing onto the stage, but it also meant that when the artist threw something in the crowd, some of them had to jump down, grab it, and try again. My biggest qualm was how HOT it was. Even from the second floor balcony, near a fan, and with it not being super crowded up there, I was sweating. I can't imagine what it's like for the people in the pit. Overall, not awful, but there's better venues out there in SoCal. read more

I would love to recommend this venue. They book great artists and are in a great location. That, however, is not a reflection of the business itself or the experience of patronizing it. Customer service is nonexistent. I have seen two shows at the Glass House, and I had trouble getting information about set times that could easily have been cleared up in a phone call, but they have no phone to call. I have tried following up after the fact and gotten no response. As for the venue, it's a box with grungy bathrooms. read more

Great venue for shows except that it is crazy hot! Wide open space and liked the balcony area and stage area as well. Nothing fancy, but good spot. read more

It's been years since I was last here to watch some heavy metal bands play. Check the parking lots because they have meters and you don't want to end up with a ticket. My friend had an extra ticket for Destruction the metal band from Germany so I accepted the invite. It was a Tuesday night and the venue was packed. The sound is good and the area in front of the stage is very spacious. read more

This venue is a lot nicer than I remember it being a couple years ago. I don't remember the bar area being so cute, it genuinely felt like its own bar & not part of a concert venue. I also like how close and personal this venue feels. Even though my friend and I were a bit a ways back, we still weren't even that far from the band. Overall it was a pretty good time and I enjoyed my first time being back at this place in years. Also such a highlight for me that I was finally able to see La Dispute live. I've loved them since middle school. read more

I have attended a couple of different shows here. It's a good space to catch indie and smaller acts. The women's restrooms are upstairs, but I'm not sure if they have an elevator for people who may have mobility issues. The women's restroom is not bad, especially considering that throughout the course of a show, people are getting increasingly drunk. There are multiple stalls and sinks. For the show I went to, the merch table was located on the balcony upstairs. That was interesting as I'm used to having merch close to an exit somewhere. Tickets are usually available at the door if the show is not sold out. They do search your bags before you enter. Security hangs out in different places throughout the show. In order to purchase alcohol at the bar, your ID is checked, and you get a wristband to show that you are of age. Drinks are pretty standard. Don't expect anything super complicated or fancy as far as I can tell. Shows are standing room only. There are no seats if you're hoping to sit. Acoustics are great. read more

It's seriously the best venue. Parking is easy, drinks are cheaper than most venues, lots of places to stand with a great view of the stage.

Able to handle maybe ~1000 people at maximum capacity The Glass House is exactly what it needs to be in terms of acoustics and staffing. Offering a large stage, balcony, free water and efficient security the entry and exit process are streamlined while parking nearby in plentiful. Was lucky enough to see Thursday with Chris from Saves The Day here on 4/11/26 and they absolutely crushed it. No smoking and good ventilation are an added benefit. read more

Could be such a great venue, has everything needed but qualified, educated sound technicians. If you see a lead guitarist taking a lead, and you cant hear him cut through the rest of the mix, you suck and should in no way have that job. I blame management. Why should I waste my money and time to hear my favorite bands sound terrible at no fault of their own. Wont be going back. read more

Visited Pomona for the first time when I visited the Glass House venue for the Rochelle Jordan concert. A lot of LA folks ventured out here for it. Didn't know what to expect but I had a good time. The venue is very well run and organized, but the staff wasn't too obnoxious about it. I liked the crowd although her concert may just have been more mature than normal, idk. Solid music spot in the burbs! I'd go back if they had someone that I really wanted to see. read more

Where do I start. This place brought back memories of the Troubadour, Rainbow and Whiskey a go go. Went to see Armoured Saint a heavy metal band from the 80s. They were amazing and was so nice and quaint. read more

One star since their A/C doesn't work. 75 degrees outside and 90 degrees inside. I was miserable. Saw a great band that put on a great show despite the heat, but would not recommend seeing anything here. Maybe it would be ok in the winter. read more

cozy small venue. a bit aged but adds to the charm. Nice audio and security/staff were friendly and attentive.

I have been coming here for 20 plus years and the Glass House never disappoints. The best bands come and perform for inexpensive prices. It's a fun place to watch live music. The bartenders are always very pleasant and welcoming. The restrooms are clean and there are plenty of stalls. We will definitely keep coming. read more

Didn't appreciate being kicked out of the venue as soon as the last band walked off stage. Was trying to buy merch and have the band sign my items and was kicked out by staff as soon as the show ended. Not very customer service. It felt tacky to ask their customers to leave as soon as possible after they paid a lot of money for over their priced drinks. The bands were incredible, I wished the venue and staffed were as kind, helpful, and as patient as the bands that wanted to make a rapport with their fans. read more

This is an excellent, fairly hidden, DIY music venue. The staff and security are amazing, and you can tell they truly care about their patrons experience. They host a diverse lineup of shows, from larger rock, pop and hip-hop artists, to local metal bands. They even offer free water in the back, which is great bc the ventilation isn't the best...but I can overlook that. Also appreciate the marked walkways that allow you to walk around without feeling claustrophobic read more

I've been to the glass house many times! It's my freaking favorite venue, the people definitely "rock the house" (Gorillaz pun) and the "freaks" are Very very kool (Surf curse pun) read more

UPDATE: I enjoy watching shows at the Glass House. Good venue, good crowd, wide variety of acts but for the love of God please invest in some AIR CONDITIONING or industrial fans or SOMETHING to circulate the air. I was here for separate sold out Vandals and Aquabats shows in July and the heat and humidity while you're watching really detracts from the experience. It is absolutely miserable. When you have the lead singers of the headliners in both shows openly mentioning the temperature (no doubt it was much worse for them since I'm only just standing there)....might be something there. I'll continue to buy tickets for shows at the Glass House but unless it's something absolutely and mind blowingly special, I'll pass on any shows in the summer months. After last night I felt compelled to warn my fellow concert going Yelpers. And if you do go, please hydrate! read more

This place has all the feel of a small club, yeah, it feels really clean and it doesn't have that funky smell that small clubs often have! (Like a dank-y beer sweat smell - been to a lot of shows in small clubs so IYKYK). It must have good ventilation here. Also, it's pretty easy to get a beer or a drink here as well in the back. And they do a good job at keeping the walkway flows clear. Over the years, I've actually been to this venue quite often. A lot of my favorite bands over the last 20 years would play here because it's the type of size crowd that they attract. I must recently saw Cursive here celebrating a milestone anniversary of their album Domestica. I seriously think this may have been my third or fourth time seeing Cursive alone at this very venue! A great view anywhere you are in the club and the sound acoustics are pretty darn good as well. A bonus is that shows never seem to be super expensive here. Definitely in my wheelhouse. Always a treat seeing my favorite groups/ musicians here. read more

Was here this weekend. I'll just say that these people, especially, Crystal, took care of me and my crew. It's nice seeing some goodness in people's hearts especially the security or front desk. Good vibes, wish the venue hosted the music until 1-2 am rather than 12 am. Good loc, nice venue, great access to bathrooms, away from different establishments in downtown read more

This was my first experience attending an event here with mybplus one . It was a TIX GIVEAWAY featuring Nation of Language presented by Desert Daze and KCRW. It was a challenge to find parking. It was after turning around the block thrice that a space finally got available. Parking alongside street curb is only 2 hours from 8 am to 12 am. Showed my ID at the Ticket Will Call and was given wrist bands for reentry pass. Band started playing at 8 pm. Nation of Language is an American Indie pop band. Their genre is alternative, post-punk and Indie pop. The Glass House venue is a concert hall with a max capacity of at least 800 people. It is located about 25 miles East of Los Angeles and 20 miles West of Riverside. Not far to travel if you are from Los Angeles or Riverside area. They have a bar available and water dispensers. Just make sure you have your ID when buying a drink but not for H2O. They had t -shirt merchandise for sale. Just not happy eith the location of the Women's restroom. There's a flight of stairs which i can't do due to a knee injury so had to leave immediately and parking was only 2 hours. read more

The wife and I went to the Glass House to see Mayday Parade a few weeks ago and it was one of the greatest shows I've been to in a long time!! Good parking too. Aside from me dealing with unresolved high school emo feelings during the show, the staff here was ON IT. They have walk ways taped on the floor and security does a phenomenal job of keeping them clear so if you want to go to the bar or the bathroom you don't have to fight your way through the crowd. Being an audio engineer, I noticed that they used the house's PA for the show and it sounded fantastic. Sufficient bass/ low end while maintaining clarity and sibilance for the tops. Might have just been the MP engineer but definitely would love to make it back here. read more

One of my favorite venues to see bands. My first experience with this place was with gifted tickets. Since then I've bought ticket a few times to see different bands. Location is fantastic. Parking is super easy, with some free spots and paid lots. There's places to eat nearby before the show. There's a good brewery next door for drinks. This venue is standing room only which sucks for me because I'm super short, but oh well. Bathrooms are large. It needs to be better ventilated, it can get sweltering. It honestly felt like I was suffocating, and I just couldn't get a breath of fresh air. read more

There's tons of parking in the surrounding area and it costs $2 for 24 hours. I've seen so many amazing shows here since the year 2000 and have A LOT of fun memories over the years here, especially with meeting the bands/artists before or after the show. If this place isn't already a landmark I feel like it needs to be. This place could've easily been some sort of warehouse in the past. The stage is at an angle and the layout here is definitely unique. It's a medium sized venue and I'd say an intimate one too. If you have a chance to see your favorite artist here versus anywhere else in So. Cal, I'd pick to see them here. Recently came here and saw Safe Ferris from the upstairs balcony and The Pioneers from Jamaica up against the wall. My view from both locations was minimally obstructed. Staff are always very nice. There's water in the back at the bar and it's free. So many Coachella acts perform here too, so keep an eye out for them to do a pop-up show between Coachella weekends. read more

One of those reviews that I could have sworn I have reviewed this spot but apparently not so let's do this. What can I say about the Glass House, it has housed many great bands and great memories for me. The area has definitely changed for the better over the years and my most recent outing here had me seeing the Descendents. Glass House is easy to get in and out of and there is plenty of parking. It's a smaller venue that has an upstairs balcony and a couple of bars. On sold-out shows, it still feels like there is always room to get your boogie on. (wow did I just type that) The stage is well placed so you always have a good view even if you are on the shorter end of height like I am. A couple of grips about this place are I wish they had a few more bathrooms and maybe one more spot to grab a drink. The sound here can also be spotty sometimes, not sure if its just cause I usually go to punk shows but it could be better. But overall this place is great, if you happen to see a band you like playing here, check them out. Small intimate venue with a great vibe and always a good evening. CHEERS!!! read more

The best thing abut this venue is the parking; there is a lot! However, the sound could be better and the room stays pretty bright due to the bar in the back. The merchandise section is always rough since the place is so small. But what's more challenging is getting into the show; it's time they move to mobile tickets. Come early, especially if it's sold out, because it took about 30 minutes to get into the venue (we arrived before the opening band's set start time and still missed their entire set). read more

Worked with the AquaBats at this venue. Nice big area with small balcony. Legendary punk club but, they have other genres too. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for music. Also, killer Jamaican restaurant across the street. read more

The Glass House in Pomona is one of the best venues to watch live concerts. I have been here three times to watch the latest touring artists/groups and I have enjoyed the music and ambiance each time. The security, bar, and ticket will-call staff are courteous and friendly. On Sunday night I watched the sold out "Cuco Night #2," and he performed flawlessly for his army of loyal fans and supporters. I was introduced to Omar Banos aka "Cuco" on public radio in 2018 and have always wanted to see his live performance ever since hearing his story. Born in Hawthorne, CA, Cuco's song, "Lo Que Siento" has been streamed over 200 million times according to recent Spotify data. The music system was great and the light show created an amazing visual experience and spotlight for the performers. The Glass House was the perfect venue to showcase his musical repertoire and Cuco's show was one of my favorites. The Glass House provides an intimate space where artist and fans get to connect and the singalongs are fun and entertaining. Cuco's performance got really hotter when he played one of his earlier hits, "Summertime Hightime" and it was especially nice to hear during a cold winter night. It was interesting to watch a large number of fans pull out their cameras during certain songs which were clearly his some of his most popular. I have to admit I did the same. The Glass House sits in the Pomona Arts District and there are many great restaurants to enjoy before the performance. The ticket prices at the Glass House are incredibly affordable/reasonable and hosts both up-and-coming artists and established performers all year round. Next month, legendary LA band "X" is scheduled to perform and I look forward to attending. Despite the concert being sold out, there was plenty of available parking within a very short distance from the entrance. read more

Great spot and excellent parking. Depending on the entertainment, you'll have a great time.

Security was terribly incompetent today. Usually much better. Ruined my day, would not recommend.

I recently saw a concert here (Tigers Jaw and Seahaven). The last time I saw a concert here, was 20 years ago, my senior year of high school. I saw Relient K and Bleach. Both experiences were good. Hopefully, I'll be back again, before another 20 years goes by. read more

The glass house is such an iconic venue. I use to come here so much growing up, it was the venue of choice. I saw many different indie bands and dj's here throughout the years and every-time everything has been so memorable, intimate and sweet. If a performer you like is scheduled to be here I highly recommend you come. One of my favorite venues in California , you will not regret it :) read more

I've been going to the Glass House for what seems like decades. Located in Pomona, it is a wonderfully small club that hosts most of the indie and metal bands that usually play The Roxy, The Whisky, or The Troubadour in West L.A. or The Observatory in the O.C. It's easy to find parking, they have a full bar - they used to have a beautiful top notch bar attached in the building next door, but it looks like that went out of business during the pandemic - and there isn't a bad zone to stand in the entire place. The sound has always been great in here. They used to have a little raised platform on the side so you could see easily over the mosh pit zone, but for some sad reason they tore that down like 10 plus years ago. Still, if a band you want to see is playing here, you should definitely go. The tickets are always cheap and you can see the stage from anywhere in the joint. I will say that security is annoying, as they have their firezone strip that goes around the club. People simply walking to the bar or the bathroom are nudged along by a never ending group of bossy security people with flashlights. Like if someone is actually walking and not standing still in the zone, leave them alone. Also, I just saw the Cavalera Bros. there (Sepultura), and they now seem to have zero air condition. It was a very hot night, and me and my son were soaking wet with sweat just standing there for the whole show. I never remember having thoughts of the temperature at the place before so I don't know if the A/C is broken or if they are just trying to save money. The place needs air. Seriously. Otherwise, as I said, it's a pretty darn good place to see a show. read more

May 2017 took my daughter for her birthday gift to see "Poptone" w Daniel Ash, Diva Dompe, Kevin Haskins https://www.discogs.com/artist/6194511-Poptone I was told that the location sucked and the venue was of poor setup. Okay, what ever, I was dodging LA because I wanted a much more intimate atmosphere. We found easy parking around the corner and as we were walking about. Downtown seemed alive and full of life and I mean multicultural simple folks all over. It reminded of what Pasadena was in the early 80's when it was coming about. I say a mix of ages but it was a pretty beautiful night. Now the actual venue I want to declare it has a "CRISP" sound! Oh we went all over that venue it is very spacious. The actual bar has soft drinks if you are just being simple and are thirsty for a soda-pop. Otherwise fast stellar service and prices are dirt cheap. So that is a plus! Great AC unit and it smells clean. You sometimes you go into old venues and it smell foul. No not hear! I smelled nothing but fresh clean air. Now that is a perk! We had a profound experience! My daughter enjoyed her first show! Walking back to my car was perfectly fine I supposed because downtown was full of life and lights. I am so glad I we gave this great venue a chance. I look forward to my return after this C19 virus. I just hope they survive and if you are around I say go for it! Enjoy! ps. the crowd is ultra chill and security is relax but then again I was with my kid being mellow with soda-pop. Sit in the upstairs wing because we found a really good view. The sound is fantastic! To the owner and crew keep up the good work because this world needs music more then ever. pss traditional bathrooms read more

To whom it may concern at the Glasshouse, I recently attended The Dresden Dolls show. My boyfriend had reached out in advance about seating to assist my disabilities. We were told (see previous emails) that there is an ADA section but it is first come first serve. This means that we had to arrive to the venue extremely early to stand in line in the rain. We arrived at 6:45 p.m. and stood until 8:15 p.m. By the time the doors opened, I was already in pain from standing for too long. When we saw the ADA section in the corner, I was VERY angry that we had spent a lot of money on tickets and waited an hour and a half in the line only to have ONE area option to sit that was far away from where Amanda Palmer would be. Because of this, I decided to push my disabilities into further pain because Amanda Palmer is my favorite. It was either my health or a good spot at the show. Maybe 30 minutes into the show I realized I could not stand anymore. I was experiencing numbness and pain in my feet and legs. So I made my way out and asked a staff member for a chair. She said they had none left and they only had 5 people working that night, so they were understaffed. She said to wait at the front and someone would eventually help me. When I waited at the front and realized no one was coming, I went back and asked another staff member. She told me I could sit temporarily on a cushioned chair. Another staff member soon came and said I can't sit on the chair and if I could give him 10-15 min he'd help me. Well I couldn't wait 10-15 min so I gave up on seeing the show and sat in the front of the venue where there are couches but 0 view of the stage. I ended up going back and forth and missing a lot of the show. I understand the music industry is slow to grasp the needs of people with disabilities. So here are ways you could actually help your attendees with disabilities: 1. In ticket sale links, add an option that asks if anyone needs a chair or other ADA accommodations such as being close to the stage due to visual impairments. This will prevent people with disabilities or injuries from having to stand in pain in line for hours in hopes of getting a limited chair. 2. Besides the number of chairs/ADA requests submitted in the ticket link, have double the amount of chairs/room available in case anyone else needs a chair/ADA space. 3. Allow people requiring chairs or other ADA needs to enter the venue before anyone else. This is what airports do, allowing people with disabilities to settle in safely and so they can avoid being in pain waiting in line for hours. 4. Create ADA seating opportunities that aren't just stuffed in a corner with no option for a prime view of the artist that they paid a lot to see. Spread it out so there's some on the left, the center, and the right. It's not our CHOICE to be disabled so at least give us the CHOICE to enjoy a show in an area that has a good view without obstruction. Those are just a few easy things you can do that will make a big difference. Please let me know if any of these changes will be made. Thanks. read more
