Here's what's going on Friday night -
This Friday, you are invited to The Palms, a pop-up party experience built in the new creative heart of New York City. A few blocks from MoMA:PS1 several art/event producers took over an abandoned bank building to create a living ode to the Boca Raton resorts of the 1940’s and infused it with music, spectacle and thoughtful hedonism.
Do you dream of late summer nights made exquisitely-out-of-control?
Welcome to The Palms.
This Friday | August 19th
Dirty Bird @ The Palms
7pm through 4am
$Absolutely Free
The Palms
26-01 Jackson Ave.
@ the corner of 44th Dr.
When it comes to bass, dirtybird is the hardest label around, relentlessly pumping out hot tune after hot tune. And they make it look easy. For one day, we're flying the dirtybird crew to The Palms NYC for the takeover of the summer.

| Wow, I can't believe I was so hesitant to go. I haven't been out since I broke up with my girl but I decided to just it and head out. This place is awesome. I felt like I was walking into DC10 in Ibiza. I talked to so many girls and had such a great time dancing and it was just a $7 cab from my apartment. This place is great. |
