Simp City at Ace of Spades

Leverage Presents: Simp City: The Hottest R&B Party of 2025

Ace of Spades is a staple of Northern California — a true gem of Sacramento nightlife if you will. Known for its stacked sound system, exposed brick interiors, and dance floor that’s seen everything from hardcore to hip-hop to high-energy R&B. Right in the heart of Midtown, just a few blocks from the Capitol and surrounded by some of the best local food joints and bars in town, Ace is the spot where the city really comes alive after dark. And on Thursday, August 29th, we’re absolutely hyped to welcome Simp City to the stage — bringing their unforgettable, coast-to-coast R&B party to the 916 for one night only. Simps! This is our time - stand up and let’s be heard across the country! Now touring under the banner Leverage Presents: Simp City — The Hottest R&B Party,  the event is making waves in cities like Los Angeles, Minneapolis, and Portland — and it’s finally coming to Sacramento. Whether you grew up with Boyz II Men on repeat or just found your way into the genre through new age artists like SZA and Brent Faiyaz, Simp City welcomes everybody. It’s all about community, nostalgia, connection, and love — with a bassline you can feel in your chest and the kind of sing-along moments that make you lose your voice in the best way.

If you’ve never been to a Simp City event before, here’s what you need to know: it’s more than a concert, it’s a full-on R&B experience. Created by a crew of tastemaking DJs and music lovers back in Las Vegas, Simp City has grown into a nationwide phenomenon — mixing the smoothest slow jams of the 90s and 2000s with live DJ sets, special guests, and a dancefloor vibe that feels like a house party in full swing. This isn’t about sitting and sipping — this is about sweating it out to Usher’s OMG, belting out some old school Toni Braxton, throwing it back to D’Angelo and Soldier by Destiny’s Child, and remembering exactly why you fell in love with R&B in the first place.

So come solo, bring your bestie, or roll in deep with the crew — but don’t sleep on this one. Tickets are already moving fast, and when the lights go down at Ace of Spades on August 29th, you’re gonna want to be in the room. We’ll see you in Simp City, Sacramento!
