Sustain The Scene is a groundbreaking, new nonprofit initiative from dublab, Postmates and Restless Nites to help save the music scene by benefiting the iconic, independent music venues that have been shut down by COVID-19 since early 2020 and are at risk of closing permanently.

Beginning March 12, 2021 in Los Angeles, Sustain The Scene is helping shuttered independent music venues reopen for delivery to return much-needed revenue to participating venues. Sustain The Scene will provide groundbreaking and crucial avenues for local communities to support their favorite independent venues by ordering food, drinks and merch, and music fans from all over the world can safely experience livestream performances from the iconic venues they know and love at home.

 Sustain The Scene will reopen music and nightlife venues throughout Los Angeles first, beginning March 12, 2021, including exclusive new food & beverage menus, cocktail packages, custom co-branded merch and gift cards, that can later be redeemed for concert tickets, all available to order through Postmates.

The first round of venues launching includes The Regent, Lodge Room, El Cid, Catch One, The Comedy Store, Akbar, The Eagle, The Lash, 1720 and ETA in Los Angeles and The Alibi in Palm Springs, and more will roll out in the coming weeks.

 Sustain The Scene’s livestream concerts will feature world-class performances, celebrity cameos, comedians and guest hosts, taped from the very iconic music stages that helped make them. The virtual concerts will take place on select Fridays and Saturdays and kick off March 12, 2021 with Girlpool and Vinyl Williams. 

Music fans and local communities can support their favorite venues by ordering directly from each venue’s exclusive menu in Postmates in the special Sustain The Scene carousel, located right within the app. Beginning March 12, 2021, each venue will appear on Postmates, offering their own unique food & beverage menus for lunch and dinner. Select venues are partnering with some of the buzziest restaurants and food trucks around Los Angeles, including Prince Street Pizza, Burgerlords, The Greyhound, Burritos La Palma and Something Good LA, for some of their most popular items or brand new exclusive menus, that directly benefit each venue partner.
