1720 is a respected and well-organized venue located in a somewhat rough area of Downtown LA. It offers a great sound system, good lighting, and large, clean bathrooms that are well-stocked and maintained. The venue features two full bars, a stage, and a designated smoking area, making it a versatile space for different events. The staff, including security, is attentive and helpful, ensuring a safe and smooth experience. The venue is convenient to a nearby metro station, though most shows end late, so visitors are advised to arrange safe transportation. While the inside is impressive and comfortable, the outside area can be quite nasty and may be a deterrent for some. Overall, 1720 provides a cool underground vibe with a focus on safety and cleanliness, making it a popular spot for concerts and events in LA.
Great venue, not enough bartenders for my liking but all in all great place

The venue is pretty cool, good sound and nice space to stand/mosh. But the area outside...damn it's freaking nasty!! Not the venues fault but it is a deterrent.
