The Yard

Sunday afternoon tea dance at Rise Bar with DJ Steve Sidewalk and DJ Paul Leasure spinning from 5pm to 10pm. Drink specials run until 9pm and bar bites are available all night — a low-key, reliably fun way to ease into the evening with good music, good people, and dance floor energy that keeps the regulars coming back.

Sunday evening at The Eagle where leather and cigar culture meet. A laid-back rooftop gathering for folks who appreciate a good smoke, strong drinks, and the company of like-minded people in one of the city's most iconic leather spaces. No pretense — just regulars and newcomers alike enjoying the ritual, the views, and the community.

Bluf New York takes over The Eagle NYC in Chelsea on Sunday, November 15, 2026, from 5 to 8 PM. It's an early-evening leather and kink crowd at one of the city's most storied bars, with the rooftop and pool tables ready for a long Sunday you'll actually remember. Settle in, catch up with friends, and enjoy the best of Sunday nightlife in New York City.

Beer Blast at Eagle NYC in Chelsea is a Sunday afternoon-into-evening session built around cold drinks and an easy crowd, with the bears and leather regulars out in force. It runs 5 to 10pm, there's no cover until 9, and then it's $20 at the door, so the early hours are the sweet spot if you want to ease in and save a few bucks.

A reading series that's all about thinking politics through critically and collectively, in the tradition of queer radical leather groups. With fascism and totalitarianism on the rise, you'll read, argue and make sense of it together at Hive Mind Books in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Please wear a mask.

Sunday evening life drawing with a queer twist — grab a drink, sketch a rotating cast of guest models through their poses, and compete for a bar tab with your best work. Hosted by BrieYOB, it's a low-pressure, high-fun creative hangout at Metropolitan where you don't need any artistic skill, just the willingness to show up, sip, and sketch. No cover.
