Bibbidi, Bobbidi...Weekend! July 27 Weekend Guide 🗓🗽🤩

I close my eyes on any given Friday at 5:00 PM to hear the echo of the ever uproarious: “I don’t know. What do you wanna do this weekend?” Blues.

The double Daniel’s have a nickel for the jukebox and are changing the tune right now. Here is a weekend’s worth of plans packed tighter than a drag queen’s suitcase for a weekend trip to Fire Island!


Friday, July 27th

Superbad Kegger and Pregame (308 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn @ 9:15 PM)

Nothing is better than discussing classic cinema while nursing a bottle of the Queen’s finest Port. Nothing, except maybe watching one of 2007’s greatest hits while drinking an IPA at a bar.

Videology is showing Superbad, the hilariously accurate depiction of high school party culture and the odyssey that is getting alcohol when you are underaged. If you haven’t seen it this 👏 is 👏your👏MOMENT👏.

While Jonah Hill and Michael Cera are chasing cheap kegs and Emma Stone, you can sip from a keg of Blue Point’s Citrus Plunge IPA until the girl across the bar looks like Emma Stone. Get your tickets and get your drink on.


Rum Punch Fridays Secret Party (188 Linden Blvd, Brooklyn @ 5 PM)

Fewer things bring me more joy than spilling secrets and partying like it’s going out of style. Lucky for you this next event unites my two greatest passions.

Paint Your Own Pet Friday Yappy Hour (1678 3rd Ave, Manhattan @ 6:30 PM) 

ATTENTION PET PEOPLE: THIS IS YOUR MOMENT. Paint your dog, have a drink and feel accomplished. The Pet Portrait Fun is having a special Yappy Hour event.

It’s simple, buy your tix, you send a pic of your doggo to the email on the tix, they draw it out, and you paint! Buy yourself a drink and a snack and let the only water that comes near you on Friday be watercolor paint.


Happy Hour AfterWork (346 West 40th St, Manhattan @ 5 PM)

Be honest, work kicked your ass like Conor Mcgregor after you nicked his car pulling out of the parking garage.


Go to High Bar and get your drink on.

It’s free to register and take in the view but, you pay to drink your sorrows away. Don’t worry kid, a tough work weeks happen to the best of us.

The Empire Beneath the Streets (38 Park Row, Manhattan)

The Empire Beneath the Streets takes you underground to learn about the history of New York’s complex subway system. The tour begins unassumingly, at a Starbucks on Park Row and goes from there.
