# Disclosure Live at Avant Gardner NYC - May 16, 2026
Get ready for one of 2026's most anticipated electronic music events as Disclosure brings their full live show to Avant Gardner's Great Hall on May 16, 2026. This isn't just another DJ set – the British electronic duo is bringing a custom production package specifically designed for the space, promising an unforgettable night of live electronic music in New York.
What to Expect
Disclosure's live performances are legendary for their energy and technical prowess. Unlike their DJ sets, their live shows feature real-time production, live vocals, and intricate stage choreography that transforms their studio hits into dynamic concert experiences. With a production package built specifically for Avant Gardner's Great Hall, expect enhanced visuals, immersive lighting, and sound design that takes full advantage of the venue's impressive acoustics.
Two Brooklyn-based selectors will provide support, adding local flavor to this international showcase. The combination of hometown talent and world-class headliners creates the perfect balance for a memorable night out.
Why You Need to Be There
Disclosure's live shows are rare treats, especially in intimate venues like Avant Gardner. The duo's ability to blend house, garage, and pop sensibilities into cohesive live performances has made them festival headliners worldwide. Experiencing their hits like "Latch," "White Noise," and newer material in a live setting is entirely different from hearing them in clubs or on streaming platforms.
The warning in the event description says it all: "This one will sell out." With tickets ranging from $50 to $150, demand will be high for this Brooklyn show.
Venue Information
Avant Gardner's Great Hall is Brooklyn's premier electronic music destination, known for its industrial-chic design and world-class sound system. The venue's spacious layout provides excellent sightlines from anywhere in the room, while the production capabilities rival major festival stages. Located in East Williamsburg, it's easily accessible by subway and rideshare.
Practical Tips for the Night
What to Wear: Dress comfortably but stylishly. The venue gets warm during packed shows, so breathable fabrics are smart. Comfortable shoes are essential since you'll be dancing for hours.
When to Arrive: Doors typically open around 9 PM for events like this. Arrive early to catch the Brooklyn support acts and secure a good spot before the crowd builds.
Getting There: Take the L train to Montrose Avenue or the G train to Broadway. Both are short walks to the venue. Plan your route home in advance, as rideshares can be expensive after big shows.
Nearby Options: East Williamsburg offers plenty of pre-show dining options, from casual spots to upscale restaurants. Consider grabbing dinner nearby before the show.
