Each venue ranges in size and capacity, but have similar sound and lighting features. The two most popular and all-ages venues are The Grand and Rockwell. The Rockwell is the largest venue within The Complex and can hold 2, people, while The Grand is the second largest holding people.
This professional sound system creates pretty clear audio with minor sound errors. The LED lights compliment the blacked-out interior of the venues. The colors are intense, brilliant and bounce off the black walls creating a beautiful show. The atmosphere in the Rockwell and The Grand is relaxed, but livens up when the artist takes the stage.
This hole-in-the wall venue in downtown Salt Lake is the smallest venue on the list, but draws in hundreds of concert goers. This older venue has a funky vibe due to the quirky layout. In the Venue has a multi-level main floor, but that makes it easy to get a great view from anywhere.
The acoustics are great for what the sound system is and it tends to get pretty loud. The sound fills and vibrates through the venue, fully immersing attendees in the show.
Each one of these venues offers a unique experience, and while that experience also depends on what artist is performing, I recommend any of these venues for a good time here in Utah. Cancel reply.

The Complex, which held its first concert Thursday, is the newest music venue in the state. The 42,square-foot edifice can host four music acts in four separate performance areas: the intimate Vibe room that holds people; the slightly larger Vertigo room with a person capacity; the Grand room that fits people; and the Rockwell, the largest venue at 16, square feet and space for 2, people. With rooms that can legally accommodate over shows as well as those for all ages, The Complex is the newest jewel in a western part of downtown.
Morehouse's wife, Karina, pointed to the success of The State Room and this past summer's Twilight Concert Series in Pioneer Park as evidence that concertgoers are hungry for live music. With Twilight in mind, venue officials are making preparations to launch a Wednesday-night series of free shows. Deidre Hill, general manager of local ticket seller SmithsTix, also believe that Salt Lake City can handle another venue.
She said The Complex is especially attractive because if one show encounters unanticipated demand, it can easily be moved to a larger room without having to change venues. Sound insulation is still being built into the Rockwell room, and interior decorations have not yet been installed. Thursday's show with dubstep DJ Rusko was held in the Grand room. The venue has a temporary liquor license but hopes to eventually get a full-service liquor license from the state.
Much as at Saltair and The Rail Event Center, the Grand's mezzanine will accommodate those 21 and older who want to enjoy an alcoholic beverage, while the floor will be for all ages. Concessions include pizza slices, wings and waffle fries. Rusko's show wasn't the first event at the venue.
