Sunday Funday with Bingo

Hump Day just got better. Request any video you want while hanging with Albatross's Bear and Lesbian communities — two nights rolled into one. It's the kind of midweek gathering that keeps people coming back to this Astoria institution.

Friday nights at Albatross Bar kick off with Jacklynn Hyde's drag show "Primetime" at 9pm, then roll straight into karaoke that doesn't stop — an endless song catalog and a crowd that knows how to have fun. Grab a drink during happy hour from 5-8pm, and keep an eye out for Albatross IDOL Season 3, coming soon with a $300 prize for the winner.

Two free drag shows every Saturday night at Albatross — rotating queens kick things off at 8pm, then Sutton Lee Seymour and special guests take over the stage at 11pm. It's the kind of reliable, no-cover entertainment that keeps the neighborhood's queer scene coming back week after week. Catch the 2-for-1 happy hour from 5-8pm if you want to start the night right.

Jacklynn Hyde hosts karaoke every Monday night at Albatross Bar, turning a random weeknight into a low-pressure, high-fun ritual. Grab a cheap drink during 2-for-1 happy hour from 5-8pm, then hit the stage (or cheer from the crowd) starting at 10pm. Regulars and newcomers alike belt out everything from power ballads to guilty pleasures — stick around as late as you want since the bar stays open until 4am.

Tuesday nights at Albatross Bar belong to Gilda Wabbit and a room full of people who know how to have fun with a bingo card. Expect quick-witted calls, comedic commentary, drink specials all night, and a genuine cash prize on the line. It's a low-pressure, high-energy midweek reset that keeps regulars coming back week after week — grab a card, bring your friends, and see what happens.

Hump Day just got better at Albatross Bar. Request any music video you want and settle in for a night that's equal parts jukebox and community hangout, drawing the bears, ladies, and neighborhood queer folks of Astoria/Queens. It's a laid-back weekly gathering where the drinks are good, the crowd is familiar, and the soundtrack is whatever you choose.
