Supreme Court NY backs Albany’s decision to ban dance parties at The Armory
After being host to countless events including the Winter White tour with David Guetta, city officials in Albany have recently moved to ban dance music events from being held at The Washington Avenue Armory, the 15,000 square foot auditorium that served as Upstate New York's EDM mecca. Using semantics as leverage, city officials claimed that due to the venue being zoned as an auditorium the massive general admission dance parties were against city regulations - citing that an auditorium implies fixed seating and that the venue had simply become a large, illegal nightclub.
