Dante's is a nightclub and live music venue in Portland, Oregon. The venue, located along West Burnside Street and owned by Frank Faillace,[1] hosts a variety of acts ranging from burlesque to rock music.[2]
American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers took Dante's to court in November 2018 for copyright infringement for unauthorized public performance of ASCAP members' creative work. According to ASCAP, it has made numerous attempts to contact the venue prior to legal actions.[3][4]
Dante's is housed in an unreinforced masonry building.[5][6]

Doug Stanhope's Beer Hall Putsch standup album was recorded at Dante's in 2013.[11] Katt Williams performed at the venue in 2018.[12][13]
