The East Valley has a new destination for upscale entertainment with the launch of VYBE, the final addition to The Forum Complex. This much-anticipated experiential lounge marks the completion of a years-long project, offering guests a fully immersive and elevated evening experience that brings together cuisine, ambiance, and entertainment in one dynamic space.
VYBE captivates guests from the moment they walk in. The venue features wall-to-wall digital visuals, ambient roaming performers, and a curated soundtrack of lounge beats by rotating DJs, creating a multi-dimensional environment that stimulates every sense.
“From a Vegas-style lounge with live entertainment to VIP suites with karaoke, to the most incredible dining options at Vybe, to an upscale event venue, to our 6,000 square foot patio, this complex is a one-of-a-kind experience,” Owner Chuck Fazio said.
Guests can enjoy creatively crafted cocktails, a selection of refined small and large plates, and playful desserts. Every element is designed to engage the senses, while plush velvet chairs and a rich, stylish interior complete the setting. The setting offers a sense of comfort that encourages patrons to linger. Located just off Gilbert Drive and the Loop 202, The Forum Complex is now a fully realized entertainment hub.
“Vybe was born from a desire to bring something entirely new to the East Valley; an upscale dining and entertainment experience that feeds your senses. We were tired of traveling to Scottsdale or Vegas to experience something great,” Fazio said. “We set out to create a space where music, ambiance, and culinary artistry come together in perfect harmony. This isn’t just dinner—it’s a full-on vibe you’ve never felt before.”
Within The Forum, guests can also visit The Lounge, an intimate, candlelit showroom that features live performances centered on piano, saxophone, bass, and smooth vocals. The Lounge provides a cozy, luxurious space enhanced by traditional craft cocktails, champagne, and carefully curated small plates.
For a more casual option, The Bar offers a neighborhood feel, complete with multiple screens for watching sports, draft beers, comfort food, and a relaxed social atmosphere.
Tucked away within the complex is Karaoke Korridor, a sleek, modern hallway that opens into four uniquely decorated private lounge suites. Each suite is equipped with a full karaoke setup, making it an ideal setting for private parties and group fun.
The Venue is a 200-capacity multi-purpose hall that opens on select nights for comedy shows, private receptions, speaking engagements, and other events. It provides the flexibility to host a wide range of gatherings, making The Forum a versatile destination for both entertainment and celebration.
“You have to experience it to believe it. There is not one person who walks into the building who doesn’t go wow, this is incredible,” Fazio said.
With the launch of VYBE, The Forum Complex offers something for every guest, every mood, and every kind of evening, whether you’re looking for immersive dining, live music, casual drinks, private events, or simply a night out with friends. To learn more, visit theforumcomplex.com/vybe.
