Kelsy Karter & The Heroines: The Pleasure Tour

Turn up the volume and mark your calendar: Kelsy Karter & The Heroines are rolling into Austin on The Pleasure Tour, and Antone’s is about to get loud.

• When: Saturday, June 6, 2026 at 8:00 pm

• Where: Antone’s Nightclub in downtown Austin

• With: Special guest Grace McKagen

Known for her gritty rock vocals, rebellious energy, and glam-punk aesthetic, Kelsy Karter leads The Heroines with the kind of swagger that feels tailor-made for a legendary club like Antone’s. Expect a high-energy set packed with big hooks, snarling guitars, and the kind of crowd interaction that makes a club show feel like a wild night out with your new favorite band.

Antone’s is a mostly standing-room venue, which means you’ll be right in the thick of the action. Your ticket gets you general admission entry with standing room; a limited number of seats may pop up on a first-come, first-served basis, but the emphasis here is on being on your feet, singing along, and feeling every beat. If you have ADA needs, the venue encourages you to reach out in advance so they can do their best to accommodate you.

Fuel for the fun comes straight from the Antone’s kitchen. You can grab beer-steamed Cliffy Dog hotdogs and Antone’s Famous Po Boys, served in five classic varieties: Original, Turkey & Swiss, Premium Roast Beef, Tuna, and The Piggy. These sandwiches trace their roots back to 1962, when Clifford Antone’s uncle Jalal created the now-iconic recipes, and they’re still paired perfectly with Zapp’s New Orleans Kettle Style Potato Chips. It’s the kind of simple, satisfying comfort food that hits just right between sets.

Planning ahead for parking is a smart move for this show. Downtown can get busy, so booking a spot in advance through services like SpotHero is recommended. If you go for street parking, be sure to check signs and pay stations so you don’t end the night with a surprise ticket instead of an encore. Valet is also available for purchase nearby if you prefer to pull up and head straight to the music.

Between Kelsy Karter & The Heroines’ rock-and-roll theatrics, Grace McKagen’s fierce opening set, and the intimate, storied vibe of Antone’s, this night is built for people who want to feel a concert, not just hear it. Grab your ticket, lace up your dancing shoes, and get ready for a sweaty, sing-at-the-top-of-your-lungs kind of Saturday night.
