Free Sunday BBQ

Gregory Buckheit takes over Saturday nights with a high-energy mix of singing, bartending, and half-price drinks from 4PM to 8PM. It's the kind of Saturday reset that keeps Hell's Kitchen coming back — expect good cocktails, better vibes, and a bartender who knows how to work a room.

Saturday nights at Rise belong to DJ Xavier Mazara spinning the Main Room while VJ Paul Leasure or Mikey Mo keep the Shine Lounge visual feast going. Every third Saturday, DJ Drew joins Xavier for double the energy. It's the kind of night that builds from early evening into a packed dance floor — solid DJs, good vibes, and a crowd that knows how to have a real time.

Fourth of July weekend brings the bears out to Rockbar for a night that celebrates community, connection, and good times. Expect a packed dance floor, strong drinks, and a room full of guys who know how to have fun. This is the kind of night that reminds you why the Village's queer scene is worth showing up for.

Saturday nights at Hardware get dressed up for Bath & Bougie, a rotating lineup of drag performers and DJ 2Face spinning the soundtrack. Hosted by Janae Saisquoi and Lanyé Armón, it's the kind of night that fills the dance floor with people who came to have a real time. Half-price drinks until 8PM means the party's accessible from the jump.

Two free drag shows every Saturday at Albatross — rotating queens at 8pm, then Sutton Lee Seymour and special guests take over the stage at 11pm. This is where the best queens in NYC come to perform week after week. Catch the 2-for-1 happy hour from 5-8pm if you want to start the night right.

Saturday nights at VERS belong to the dance floor — a rotating lineup of NYC's best DJs keeping the energy high and the crowd moving. It's the kind of night where the music is always right, the cocktails are inventive, and the room fills with people who know how to have a good time.
