***There is no host this night as we are all busy so please grab glow bracelets online or at a dollar store and bring some to share so you can find each other.

Done with Christmas dinner and feeling restless? Holiday "orphan" this year? Don't celebrate but looking for a place to party? You've come to the right place as The Roxy is one of the only places open in the city this night. Come and join us to dance, drink, be merry, and hang out with old and new friends!

Since I'm guessing none of us know when we are going to be done with our family (or other activities), The Roxy is doing FREE COVER ALL NIGHT LONG! The Roxy opens @ 10pm this night but they are expecting to be really busy so come early to avoid possible waits in line.

When you walk in, take your first right and go straight along the bar. We'll try to take over that section on the right down the single step (they aren’t taking any reservations). We also wear glow bracelets so you can find people in the bar. Please bring a pack to share with others if you can (easily found at most dollar stores). There won’t be a host this night so glow sticks are important for everyone to find each other and to form a group.

Attire: Your holiday best, your sparkly thing that's just not appropriate any other time of year, that crazy sweater you'll only get to wear once... Wear that, or anything else you feel comfortable in! Don't forget the Santa hats or reindeer ears!

The Roxy has live music every night of the week which is predominantly rock focused. You can also expect the usual DJ stuff and a live band. The Roxy also has a quieter back room area with a pool table if at any point in the evening you're looking for a quieter atmosphere.

Come join us for a night of drinking, dancing & socializing and let's spend some time with great friends. We're a friendly and easy going bunch so don't worry if you can't or won't dance. Just show up and have a good time with us!

***Remember to bring two pieces of ID. Every place we go to has to check your ID no matter how old you are.

Frequently asked questions:

I can't make it there on time, can I come later? YES! You are welcome to come at anytime! Don't worry, we are happy to have you whenever you can get there.

It's too late to RSVP, can I still come? YES! It's not a problem if you decide to come last minute and RSVP's are closed or you just forgot to make one.

It's my first time and I'm shy... Make sure you come early! The later it gets, the busier it gets which makes it harder to find people. Make sure you have a glow bracelet. Without one people think you are the just a random person trying to talk to them (most people don't like random people coming up to them in a bar). Find some people wearing glow sticks that look shy like you, talking with a group or are on their own. Ask if they are from Meetup then start chatting. REMEMBER - each time you go, you meet more people. There are tons of regulars that attend each week so the more you come, the more you meet and the more fun you have!

How do I find you? Many people in our group wear glowing bracelets so you can spot us in the crowd.

Is this a singles group? No - Anyone is welcome to join no matter what your relationship status. This is NOT a dating group. It is NOT for finding someone to hook up with. Anyone found using this group to just pick people up will be removed. If relationships form over time that is fine but it is never acceptable to try to take someone home from this group if you just met them, especially if they have been drinking. There will be zero tolerance and you will be removed from the group without warning if there is a complaint made about you.

Do I have to dance with the group? You are welcome to hang out with the group or dance with your friends. Most of our members do hang out in a large group together.

Do I have to wear a glow stick? No. We wear them so you can find us. If you would like one, you are welcome to bring your own and share some with new friends. They make it easy for us to tell who is part of our group and let you know who you can talk to.

Parking: There's street parking everywhere we go. Sometimes I have to walk a few blocks or circle around to find a spot. Parking meters are FREE AFTER 10pm so this is the cheapest way to park. Try not to park in lots, they over charge and can be hard to get in to late at night.

Coat Check: Please be careful if you bring a coat and decide not to use the coat check. I have seen quite a few people have their coat stolen (a few at the Roxy as well). $5 for coat check is a lot cheaper than a new coat. People have even had their coats stolen when all our coats are in a pile together. Please only leave something unattended if you don't care if you lose it (like an old sweater). You'll have a lot more fun if you aren't carrying around a big purse. Try finding a tiny purse just for the bar that you can sling over your shoulder while you dance.

Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. If you have any issues, please let any of our hosts know.
