Ten Year Anniversary

10/10/2025

The only distinction between the tiers is the price. If you have the means to pay a higher tier, we kindly encourage you to do so for the benefit of other guests.

Only Research community members are able buy tickets, but have no fear it's free to join and only takes a few minutes!

Just complete a membership request and we'll get back to you shortly. If you’re already a Research member (AKA you've bought tickets for a Research underground event), then login.

Research is a semi-private community of like-minded dancers. This is part our effort to create a comfortable, safe environment. It's rare that someone doesn't comply with our safer space policy and we have to bounce/ban someone. If it does happen, this system helps ensure that they're not allowed into future events.

We're excited to welcome guests from Berlin, NYC, SF, the Research debut of two Seattle up and comers, a local hero on lights, and Funktion One sound. Buckle up! For many years, Research hosted an affiliated event called Action Potential, dedicated to immersive live electronic music and visual performance. The series collaborated with Kremwerk, Decibel Festival, Elevator, the Northwest Film Forum, and Customs, bringing artists such as Yves Tumor, Actress, Laurel Halo, Julianna Huxtable, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Inga Copeland, Kangding Ray, x/o, and many more to Seattle.

As a tribute to those times, we're excited to present an early, live-focused program (doors at 7:30 PM) before we head downstairs.
