Dead Kennedys: DMPO's On Broadway is a concert video by the American punk rock band Dead Kennedys, documenting their entire June 16, 1984 performance as the headlining act on the closing night of the On Broadway, a former avant-garde theatre and nightclub located in the 435 Broadway building, which it shared with the Mabuhay Gardens nightclub, in the North Beach area of San Francisco.[nb 1]

The 58-minute show was captured in real time, using four color cameras and a stereo hi-fi track.[1]

Originally released in VHS format in 1985 as Dead Kennedys: Live in San Francisco, it would be re-released on DVD in 2000, under its current title.
