About

Slim’s is a narrow downtown dive bar on South Wilmington Street that has hosted loud local & touring bands since 1999, with an upstairs loft & outdoor patio.

Punk, Metal & Rock Nightly

The tiny stage packs in punk, metal, garage & indie acts most nights — a no-frills institution of Raleigh’s underground scene.
