About Burt's Tiki Lounge

Located in the heart of downtown Albuquerque, Burt's Tiki Lounge began as a beloved no‑cover, kitschy tiki dive when it opened in 1999 at 313 Gold Ave SW. Although Burt's relocated in 2016 and later closed in 2018, the site and its enduring musical spirit live on as Echoes Albuquerque, preserving a legacy of local bands, open mics, and affordable, unpretentious live music. Today, Echoes Albuquerque sits at the former Burt's location, continuing the tradition of intimate performances in a storied setting.
