This event, which will be held on September 24 from 6-11pm, will showcase different independent fashion designers. Throughout the night, shop while sipping on [...]

My friend Dory may kill me for sharing this upcoming party with you all since it may make the event a little more crowded, but next week’s Cosmo’s Summer Splash seems like one not to miss! Cosmo (yes, the magazine), is throwing a party at Nikki Beach on Wednesday, June 23 from 7 - 9pm. [...]

Tonight marks the annual “Museum Mile” festival. From 6-9 pm, 9 museums along 5th Avenue between 82nd and 105th Street offer free admission. In addition to free admission, you can enjoy entertainment in the streets - such as art projects and live music. Now, I’ve been to Museum Mile the past two years. My advice [...]

I love food festivals. Last week, we wrote about our experience at Choice Eats, but if you are looking to hit up a food festival that’s manageable (read: less than 75 vendors), you may want to check out theDealist’s “Tastes of the Village” festival.
This event will be held on May 1 and 2, and will [...]

Last week Laura and I attended Shecky’s Girls Night Out last week and had a great time (Laura’s thoughts are in italics). We went to a similar event last fall with some coworkers, but I found the kiosks to be more up my alley this time.
First, I was really excited to try Budweiser’s Select 55, [...]

Last week we wrote about ScoopSt’s Taste of 7th Street event. This event was held on Saturday and Sunday, and New Yorkers lined up at different restaurants to try everything from cupcakes to smoothies to pork at five different restaurants.
Caryn (her thoughts are in italics) and I checked it out on Sunday, and we heard [...]

Like day drinking? So do we. That’s why we’re eagerly anticipating this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Pub Crawl taking place Saturday, March 13th. We’ve done the Cinco de Mayo pub crawl in the past and last year’s St. Patrick’s Day pub crawl, and trust me, they never disappoint.
Cheap drinking? Check
Drunk by 1 pm? [...]

Valentine’s Day may be over, but the spirit of love remains…or something like that. The Times Square Alliance is sponsoring Free Love in Times Square, 50 days of restaurant, lodging, events and shopping deals for tourists and NYC-dwellers alike. This offer will last through March 31st, so you still have plenty of time to take [...]

We’ve written about various events around town for singles during this Valentine’s Day weekend, so it’s only fitting that we end the week with a few more ideas. On Saturday night you can check out Public House for their Valentine’s Day Eve Bash. Ladies drink for free from 9-10 pm and both ladies and gentlemen [...]

We’re starting to close out our guide to single events around Valentine’s Day weekend, and I was alerted tothis event hosted by Save the Date(ing) and JackRabbit Sports. On Sunday starting at noon, there will be a singles 5K, called Love Cubed, along the Hudson River. Following the run, there will be an open bar, [...]
