It’s Thursday Night…Do you know where the after work party is?

5:00 PM – SpotLight Live
1604 Broadway, New York, NY 10019
The people at Velvet List do it big every summer with the Thursday afterwork parties, and this year’s creation at SpotLight Live is just as grand as those from years past. Ladies on the guestlist (velvetlist.com) get in for free until 7pm, and fellas on the guestlist are only charge $5 until 7pm. On top of that, you’ll get 2-for-1 drinks until 7, and a free complimentary buffet. As for the ambiance, SpotLight Live is one of the best places in New York City. The crowd is full of young black professionals and is also very diverse at the same time. You’ll get mostly hip-hop all night ,with the occasional Latin tune thrown in here and there. Overall, this should be your one-stop destination for Thursday nights. I’ll be there, so why wouldn’t you?

10:00 PM – Black Budda/Star Lounge
222 West 23rd Street, New York, NY 10011
Get on the guestlist (646.752.7462) for this splendid event so that you can get in for free, and party in presence of some of NYC’s most professional young, black individuals. Black Budda Thursdays has been host to celebrities like Ron Artest, Emeka Okafor, Tim Thomas and Red Café. And if you think that there isn’t enough room for you and all of their egos, think again. Star Lounge is full of space with 3 rooms, 2 bars, a lounge and one infamous stripper poll that sees a lot of action. There is an open bar that ends early (no specific time, obviously a teaser ploy), so if you get there at the right time you will walk in on a club full of overly tipsy, black professionals drowning out the work week. What could be better than that?

10:00 PM – Dollhouse Thursdays/Madison
27 West 24th Street, New York, NY 10010
Dollhouse Thursdays is a steal of deal. You get in free if you’re on the guestlist (646.261.1328), and that’s for both males and females! Ladies who are there between 11 and midnight will get complimentary cocktails for that hour. So I would encourage any ladies who want to drink on the house to make out to the club before 11. And in a completely unrelated piece of advice, I would also tell the gentlemen that you might want to get there by 12 to enjoy a certainly more vivacious crowd.
