Rise's Sunday drag brunch is the weekend reset you actually want to show up for — rotating drag performers, bottomless mimosas, and two seatings at 12:15pm and 2:30pm so you can make it work. The kind of brunch where the entertainment is as good as the food, and the crowd knows how to have a genuinely good time.

Albatross's Sunday tradition starts at 1pm with Skinny Brunch and $5 mimosas and bloody marys through 6pm. At 3:30pm, Diana Carfire takes over for bingo with actual cash prizes on the line. It's the kind of low-key, fun afternoon that keeps people coming back week after week.

Every Sunday afternoon, Playhouse transforms into a neon-soaked Eurovision fever dream. This is the weekly gathering for everyone who lives for the drama, the camp, and the pure spectacle of Europe's biggest song contest. DJ oHRicky spins the hits while the music and video keep the energy high and the dance floor packed. It's the kind of Sunday reset that actually makes sense.

Every Sunday at 2pm, Lexington Banks and Jasmine Rice Labeija take over Balcon Salon for a drag brunch that's equal parts performance and celebration. Think good food, strong drinks, and two queens who know how to work a room. Reservations required—bachelor, bachelorette, and birthday parties all welcome.

A Sunday afternoon tea dance at Brooklyn's biggest queer venue — the kind of daytime gathering where the dance floor gets serious and the energy builds as the sun goes down. 3 Dollar Bill's outdoor space and state-of-the-art sound system make this the neighborhood's best reason to start your weekend early.

Kelsey L. Smoot reads from his debut collection DOPAMINE, bringing the powerful lyricism of Soulmate As A Verb to life. The afternoon includes conversation with visual artist and printmaker, creating space for the kind of intimate literary exchange that happens best in a room full of people who get it.
