The Atlantis is a music venue in Washington, D.C., that opened on May 30, 2023. The venue was designed to evoke the original 9:30 Club at 930 F Street NW, which itself was first called The Atlantis. The new venue opened exactly 43 years after the original 9:30 Club. The venue, adjacent to the current 9:30 Club on V Street NW, has a capacity of only 450 people. The Foo Fighters were the first band to perform at the venue after its grand opening, two years after Dave Grohl first revealed that the venue was being built. However, D.C. power pop/punk band, Venray was the first to perform during the soft opening on Sunday May 28, opening for the local go-go band, Trouble Funk. The club plans 44 performances during its first season, running from May through September 2023. Tickets were initially released through a lottery system, drawing over half a million requests for the 20,000 tickets.

The 9:30 Club (originally named Nightclub 9:30, also known simply as the 9:30) is a nightclub and concert venue in Washington, D.C. In 2018, the 9:30 Club was named one of the 10 best live music venues in America by Rolling Stone, and in 2019 the club was named "Venue of the Decade" by VenuesNow.The club was originally housed in the ground floor rear room of the Atlantic Building at 930 F Street NW, in the city's downtown area, where it opened on May 31, 1980, with a legal standing capacity of 199. In 1996, the club was moved to a roomier space: its current location at 815 V Street NW, where it anchors the eastern end of the U Street Corridor. The 9:30 Club's name was derived from its original street address, which was also the reason to set the venue's original opening time of 9:30 p.m. Early advertising on D.C.'s WHFS radio featured the slogan "9:30 – a Place and Time!" The club has a distinctive wheeled stage mounted on rails, which can be moved back and forth as needed. This way, the place can feel as packed with 500 people in attendance as it would during a sold-out, full capacity show.Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump once said of the 9:30, "it's got so much character, you wonder if the locals know how lucky they are."
