About This Event

Metropolitan's Thursday lineup shifts with the seasons and the mood — one week it's a DJ set, the next might be live music or a themed party. The best way to know what's on? Hit up their Instagram or give them a call. It's the kind of bar that keeps things fresh without ever losing what makes it special: a genuinely welcoming crowd, two fireplaces when it's cold, and that legendary backyard garden when the weather's right.

Each edition of Hella celebrates a different pop icon with DJ Manila Ice behind the decks, heavy rotation of their music all night, and videos splashed across the screens. Past tributes have ranged from Aaliyah and Kylie to Grace Jones and Donna Summer — basically, if they're a legend and a diva, they've probably gotten the Hella treatment. No cover, so there's no excuse not to show up.
