Wild Wednesdays

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.

Sunday nights at Rise belong to Marti and Chicky, who host Playground Sundays with the kind of energy that makes you actually want to stick around after the tea dance winds down. It's the reliable weekly anchor that keeps Hell's Kitchen's queer scene moving into the night.

Showtunes and drag collide on Monday nights at Rise. A rotating cast of queens—Paige, Sutton, Cacophony, and Evita—deliver the performances that make this night worth the midweek trip. Music videos kick off at 7, showtime at 8:30 with DJ Gingy keeping the energy up all night.

Tuesday nights at Rise belong to the bingo crowd — free to play, fabulous prizes, tasty bites, and happy hour running until 9pm. Paige Turner keeps the energy high and the laughs coming as balls drop and cards fill up. It's the kind of low-key, genuinely fun midweek thing that keeps people coming back.

Thursday night at Rise belongs to Zetta Jones and the kind of drag-fueled chaos that actually lives up to the hype — boys, drama, comedy, and DJ Steve Sidewalk keeping the energy high all night. It's the show that reminds you why Hell's Kitchen's drag scene is where the real action happens.

Friday nights at Rise belong to RuPaul's Drag Race fans and the rotating cast of queens who bring the competition energy. Showtime at 8PM — expect high-octane performances, fierce lip syncs, and a crowd that lives for the drama. It's the kind of night that reminds you why drag is such a big deal in this city.
