Why Thanksgiving Eve is NYC's Favorite Party Night

Thanksgiving Eve—often dubbed Drinksgiving or Blackout Wednesday—is a unique phenomenon in New York City. It’s the unofficial start to the holiday season, marked by:

  • No Work on Thursday: The primary driver! Guests can party until 4 AM knowing they have a holiday to recover.
  • Friendsgiving Reunions: Old friends return home, making the crowds at NYC bars and nightclubs the most vibrant of the year.
  • Unmatched Energy: The celebratory atmosphere rivals New Year's Eve, but with less pressure.

From intimate Downtown Lounges to sprawling Rooftop Bars, the entire city is buzzing with anticipation.
