Jazz in the Park and a Day Party With Drake
Are you down to party with Drake and Virgil Abloh this weekend?
What a week, huh? Some of us are experiencing those end of summer blues and some of us are already drinking warm apple cider. Whether you’re lamenting the end of bikini season or shopping for your new fall Uggs, we’ve got your weekend covered. There’s still sunshine and summer vibes in NYC, and with plenty of things to do this weekend, it appears you have ample opportunity to ghost your friends and order Seamless or hang with Drake and listen to his ever-confounding emotions. Your choice, but honestly you should just choose Drake.
House of Yes Pool Party
You know House of Yes, right? A former ice warehouse converted into a performance venue, House of Yes is basically where you go when you feel like dousing yourself in glitter and partying until three in the morning. It’s the closest thing to a European discotheque you’ll find in NYC. This weekend, the venue is hosting a pool party and you’re encouraged to wear spandex, vintage bikinis, speedos, or anything that will make you feel like you’re a professional synchronized swimmer. The event is free when you RSVP.
2 Wyckoff Avenue
SUN // 2 pm—8 pm
Jazz in the Park
Not looking to live out a pool fantasy? That’s totally fine. Come out and hang with trumpeter Alex Nguyen this Sunday. Pack a picnic, bring a blanket, and watch the sun set in the Stuyvesant Square Park. Nguyen is a winner of the International Trumpet Guild Jazz Competition, so this isn’t going to be elevator jazz. We promise! This is the type of jazz that would make it on a Woody Allen film. After all, Ngyuen is a Savannah, GA native—it’s simply in his blood.
Rutherford Place
SUN // 6 pm—9 pm
Day Party With Drake and Virgil Abloh
Virgil Abloh and Drake are throwing a day party and they’ve so kindly invited you to hang with them. Virgil Abloh, for those who don’t know, is the artistic director of Louis Vuitton’s menswear, and Drake is…well, he’s Drake. Hip-hop and fashion collide this Sunday at the Brooklyn Mirage but don’t expect to get in for free folks. Tickets are still available here.
SUN // 4 pm—1 am
