About The Aardvark
The Aardvark was a beloved, small, standing-room oriented live-music bar and club located at 2905 W Berry St in Fort Worth, just a short ride from Texas Christian University. With a capacity historically listed around 300, it hosted a range of indie and rock acts from 2014 to 2018, including Green River Ordinance, Reverend Horton Heat, Afroman, and Jason Boland & the Stragglers. Since its sale in 2018, the space has been renamed and repurposed for other uses, but the venue remains a notable part of Fort Worth’s music history. This page provides a comprehensive overview for fans and visitors seeking context about the space, how to access it when it was active, and nearby options for parking, transit, hotels, and dining.
While the Aardvark is no longer operating as a music venue, Fort Worth offers a rich live-music scene with many current clubs and bars in the vicinity of West Berry Street and Downtown. If you’re planning a night out in the area, we can help connect you with nearby hotels such as Bowie House, Omni Fort Worth, and The Worthington Renaissance Fort Worth Hotel, as well as recommended dining options.
