The Shaq pits almost got dangerous at a couple points, not due to the heat, but people were clearly exhausted otherwise. Free water should be a NECESSITY!

I should not be filling my 7 dollar water bottle in the bathroom tap sink

Do you all debrief and talk about the quality of the experience for attendees? I’m thinking about how bad the sound was for Prydz last night and wonder if it’s something yall talk about and attempt to address or if that doesn’t happen because it was sold out and the beat and drugs are good enough combo for most people tho have had a great time

Anyone have set times for Resolute tonight?

for some reason I can't find this info online!

Male 27.

The title says it all. I went to a rave on Thursday for the first time and let's just say that I had the time of my life? That's exactly how i would describe it.

But anyway, I want to meet people who i can go with? Is there anyway i could connect with people? Maybe someone could msg me and invite me into their group or something? ^_^

Thanks for reading, hope y'all have an AMAZING day/night, take care of yourself and have an amazing new year. Still got 11 months left <3

Getting some thoughts on the venue in case this place gets added onto the rotation. For those that were there for pryda last night, please add some of your thoughts on the venue

-size? -sound? -bars -bathrooms -heat/warmth -coat check -parking -safety/security in the neighborhood -etc

Just here to say I love factory that’s it the end lol.

Any words of wisdom from people who went last night?

This should be pretty sick, haven't seen him play in New York in a while. Also love WHOMADEWHO which is there the night before, guess it will be a weekender. Anyone else going?

Appreciation post, please tell me someone recorded his set/will post it. Think it was one of his first times being in NYC, and he threw down so hard I won’t forget it for a while.

What I mean but this is, for certain DJs/groups, what time do they usually go on? I'm never sure. For example, someone like Paul Van Dyk at Webster Hall, Tiesto at Avant Gardner, or Underworld at Brooklyn Mirage, or something similar.

I don't really go to these as I'm going more for show/vibe than to dance, so I'm not really familiar if they (headliner/sole DJ) go on at 10pm, 11pm, 2am, etc.?

Any thoughts/comments or pointing me to a thread where something similar it already asked are appreciated. Thanks

Hi my friend and I are 18 and looking to do something fun in NYC. Does anyone have any recommendations or lists of clubs or events that are 18+ in the summer. I searched the sub and a lot of the clubs are like 19+ or 20+, but we won't be old enough for those.

anyone going to this rave ?? playing music of women djs

hows the set up, never been, thinking about going for dj python

Do you know if reentry is allowed at Merge? The party starts at 11pm and closes at 12pm tomorrow. I’d like to go tonight and come back tomorrow morning.

Anyone seeing her next weekend at Elsewhere? Discovered her music last week and now I'm super hype to see her. Great fucking music.

Is there any way I can search for 16+ raves on any of the apps my sister in law wants to go to a show with me and I am having a hard time looking for one.

We've got two free parties this weekend and lots of good vibes for those looking for house / deep house / afro and tech. We're playing open-to-close in the Water Tower tonight, and we're headlining at the Public Hotel tomorrow night. If anyone wants to come please drop us a message and let us know which event you'd like to attend - or both! Looking forward to this!

Anyone going to of the trees on 2/8 in Brooklyn ?

With all of this happening can they make raids in venues?

I recently stumbled upon a reel of one of their sets, and it looked like a fucking blast—everyone going crazy, bouncing off the walls, bumping into each other, with some push moshing sprinkled in. It looked beautiful. It’s the kind of energy I wish the rave scene had more of.

These days, if you go even a little crazy at a rave, you get dirty looks or, worse, recorded—especially in NYC, where, in my experience, the sound rarely goes beyond deep house or techno house. When I do find harder techno events or anything with a higher BPM, the crowd energy is usually dead. Aside from a handful of people really getting into it, most just stand around, acting like those who are fully enjoying the music are the odd ones out. Some even give disgusted or annoyed looks.

(Again, this is just my personal experience—if I’m wrong, I’d love to be corrected and pointed in the right direction for the kind of energy I’m looking for.)

Sorry for the mini rant, but I’d love some recommendations for this vibe if it even exists in NYC. Honestly, for such a big city, the scene feels disappointingly narrow.

Doors open at 10 but any idea when he will start?

As a introvert I tend to stay at a distance, the touching and bumping into each other over stimulates my senses so I stay back. But I would like to meet and enjoy laughing and making sure I don't soil my pants like I have seen at raves.

so i’ve recently gotten into raving but none of my friends are too into it, was wondering what venues are the best for going alone as a 22 year old girl

(25m) Hey so I’m thinking about going to either Shaq dj set or paragon solo as my first rave . They both start around 11pm What time should I get there . I hear a few people saying 2am, but I want to see what the ideal time is that everyone gets there . I know some of the raves last until the morning.

[SOLVED! - Answer was Rubulad]

Hey everyone! Around 2-3 summers ago I tagged along with some friends to a dance party that was in either Bushwick or Ridgewood. From what I recall:

You walked in off the sidewalk through a shipping container into a large backyard. There was a dance floor + food under a tent outside and a few small structures outside you could sit and hang out in.

There was an actual large indoor space on the side with a full dance floor and bar. Elevated stage for the DJ. Bathrooms in the back.

I lost all the pictures on my phone a year ago, so I don't have any to aid in the search unfortunately.

Does this ring any bells for anyone on where / what this could be?

Seeing the legend this friday but was a little confused on the show timings. Says it's going from 10pm-5am, so when would he play? Also does anyone know who the openers are?

I've never been part of that scene but I would like to experience it live a little I guess see what's up

Edit:I'm 19 btw

Edit:not specifically at market hotel I just know from a few people like I said not part of the scene

Nightlife producer here looking to buy stickers like the ones they use at Basement to cover peoples' phone cameras?? I've tried several stickers from Amazon and Staples but haven't found ones that -- actually stick to phone cameras AND are large enough to cover all the cameras (iPhones now have 3 diff ones)

If anyone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it! Haven't had any luck asking venues for reccs directly and would love any leads form the community 💚💚💚

time to cry
