Babylon

Wednesday nights at Jackhammer belong to the people who actually want to sing — no judgment, no gatekeeping, just a room full of folks ready to cheer each other on. Whether you're belting out a power ballad or testing out something completely ridiculous, this is the kind of karaoke night that feels like hanging out with friends who get it.

Rough Trade brings the leather and alternative scene to Jackhammer's dance floor — a night built for the community that's made this bar a home for over two decades. Expect a packed room, solid music, and the kind of crowd that knows how to have a real good time without the pretense.

Belly Up returns for a body-positive late-night summer celebration at Jackhammer — sweaty dance floors, DJs all night long, and a room full of chubs, bears, chasers, admirers, and everyone who loves big energy and bigger vibes. No cover before 10pm. Free to be yourself, free to dance, free to take up space.

A queer throwback into the maximalist turn-of-the-millennium club era—two floors, two worlds, pulsing with the deep driving rhythms and euphoric energy that defined a generation. Upstairs builds the energy, downstairs pulls you in. Hosted by Eris & Ben Trotter with DJs Heroic.vers, Knocktopuss, Chata, Floor Supervisor, and Datalore. Dress encouraged. 21+.

Wednesday nights at Jackhammer belong to anyone with a mic and something to prove. Lip Service is the kind of karaoke where the crowd actually wants you to have fun — no judgment, just people cheering each other on, cheap drinks, and a room that gets genuinely loose as the night goes on. Show up ready to sing, laugh, or just enjoy watching your friends discover their inner diva.

Market Days weekend kicks off with a music-first night built around house, uplifting vocals, and the communal energy that defined queer dance floors at the turn of the millennium. Knocktopuss and heroic.vers behind the decks, 9pm to 4am. This is a celebration of the sounds that shaped generations—whether you lived it then or you're discovering its influence now.
