ONCE Somerville

ONCE Somerville Formerly a live music venue, ONCE is now a creative producer in other people’s spaces. ONCE Somerville is not just a music venue, it is an idea.

JJ Gonson's vision cannot be confined by physical boundaries because ONCE is an ever-changing space that specializes in creating a safe and inclusive environment to listen, dance, drink, eat and thrive. You'll never know what we are doing next, but for now, check out what JJ and the team are up to all summer long at our outdoor club at ONCE - Boynton Yards in Somerville MA.

What is ONCE and why?

It’s not quite a nightclub, it’s not quite a bar, what is that place that used to be Anthony’s up on Highland Ave, anyway? Upstairs the ONCE Lounge has a friendly, neighborhood feel with bomb drinks and great hangs. Come in to see a show, and while you are there have a cocktail, play a game of pinball, shoot some pool and be social. Downstairs the ONCE Ballroom is open for shows and events and features a great sound system and stage. We fill up the calendar with not to be missed rock shows, podcasts and monsters wrestling (monsters wrestling? Yeah, you just gotta believe) Come check us out, you will not believe the One Night Creative Events you will find at ONCE
