FAQ

♦ How do I RSVP or get tickets?

Go to the event page (by clicking on the flyer of the show on the homepage or on the 'Shows' page). Depending on whether it is one of the events in our free series or a ticketed show you will see the RSVP or the Tickets button at the top. Click it - and it will take you to the RSVP/ticketing system for this event. We partner with Fever for most of our events!

If you are experiencing an issue that makes you unable to RSVP - please reach out to us with the description of what is not working!

♦ How do I play School Night?

You can find booking info on our contact page. The ears & the brains behind the music curatorship will take good care at reviewing the provided material. We do not send any generic responses to the submissions, so it is possible that you will not hear from us at all or for a very, very long time. Please be sure: we keep records of the talent we like which does not necessarily directly translate into submission replies, and we often keep an eye on the developing talent till there is the right time in their artistic evolution for a School Night show to be a good fit. If you have submitted all the useful bits along with the music - you do not need to follow up or do anything else. If you did not hear from us yet but have some new music you want to submit additionally - go ahead and make a new submission! And please do not be discouraged if you haven’t received any replies after one, two or several submissions: we have had several experiences of a new music of an artist we’ve known about for years suddenly clicking just right for a School Night show.

♦ What time are doors?

It depends on the show. The usual time we open the doors on Monday at Bardot is 7:00pm, but even that varies with different events in our various markets. The door time for other shows is different for each single show and date.

♦ Can I take photographs during the events?

Fans attending School Night at Bardot are okay to take pictures with their smartphones. If you are considering doing a professional or a semi-professional photo or video shoot (using a dedicated photo or video camera) - please reach out to us at least one full week prior so that we can confirm that no “no photo/video” agreements are in place for this particular date and that all other circumstances would allow it. In any scenario, please be respectful to the Artists, DJs and to other attendees, and considerate of their experience: it might be an important performance to capture for the annals of history, but it is no less important for the people behind you to be able to experience it in the most uncompromised way possible.

For all the other events - refer to the policies of the respective venue.

Please do share the pictures with us, and tag @itsaschoolnight on socials if you post it - we love seeing it through different lenses and saving the precious moments that they captured.

One more tip: we have one or more in-house photographers for most of our events, and the bands occasionally bring their own photographers/videographers as well. If the event in question is a big hype - the competition for the best-angle-front-of-the-stage-spot can get tough.

♦ Is there any connection to KCRW?
