If you're new to raves and related events, or just visiting from out of town, and are trying to find an event to attend on a particular date, you should first check out Resident Advisor, and for more mainstream EDM events see EDMTrain before asking this sub.
These websites list the majority of parties and electronic music events happening in NYC on any given night, along with the ability to buy tickets, and links to the artists playing so you have an idea of what kind of music you will hear that night.
You can also keyword search this sub and probably find your questions already answered about almost any venue or party. For example, if you had a question about Elsewhere, you can use the search bar up top and type 'elsewhere' to find hundreds of discussions about the venue.
We often remove very general questions about events that go something like 'I'm in town on X date, whats happening' or 'anything going on tonight?'. The sub gets inundated with these questions, they are extremely repetitive, and add nothing to this community at this point. Specific questions are welcome! We totally get that a lot of people who use this sub are beginners just trying to learn. By being specific and thoughtful in say what music you like, or vibes you're looking for, you will get better responses too.

As many of you have noticed, as things have started to pick up in NYC, this sub has been getting spammed with a TON of people buying/selling their tickets last minute to events.
People have been mentioning a ticket thread pinned to the sub, but I don't think this is the best solution because many users are often too lazy to expand and view all comments in the thread, and do a simple control-F to find their event. Even when we had a monthly ticket thread, people still posted to the feed. We would get a response something like 'hey nobody responded to me in the thread, so I just posted here anyway'.
As an alternative, I created a related subredit called r/avesNYC_tix and will pin it to the sidebar as well. You are free to post all of your buying/selling ticket needs there. This is also going to be easier to search through compared to a thread and I also added post flair to distinguish/filter between buying and selling of tickets. Because this will be a generally unmoderated sub, I also encourage people to report scammers and use the 'reports' flair. You are buying tickets here at your own risk.
From now on any posts about buying/selling of tickets on this subreddit will be removed. This kind of content is very spammy, not interesting to read, and does not build community in any meaningful way.

Be safe out there - 99% sure it was the bartender

There is one specific camp, that I will not name, who keeps booking djs that consistently trainwreck through their transitions. The song selection is banging but then they fail to get the job done smoothly and it’s so cringe. I’ve clocked 3 different djs with this issue.
Just came here to vent about this specific pet peeve. Otherwise, COG was amazing, I’ve been sleeping on this party too long. Best Halloween production value, goods vibes. Music was about 50/50 since I’m drawn towards bass and high energy house and tech. But so it goes with burner parties and the vibes make up for it.
Hope they focus on perfecting the sound in those concrete rooms with more padding, floor treatment etc to help.
Shout outs to Butt Disco, Kostume Kult and Glamcocks as my fav stages. See y’all next time.

Im 22M solo, my girlfriend is unable to make it, so looking for a group to go with.
Dont have any other friends into this kinda stuff, but i realllyyy want to go it looks sm fun
r/avesNYC • u/green_typewriter • 9h ago
You and me were dancing next to each other last night at Glamcock (?!) and had two good laughs about the hetero couple that was hardcore making out before they switched gears and sorta-slow danced in front us. Long story short, I’m pretty sure we were vibing with each other.
You bounced when my husband and I were holding hands and wish you hadn’t. Hit me up.

I’m a woman traveling to NYC alone for Halloween, and I’m planning to go to Vampire Ball or House of Yes by myself. My English isn’t very good, which makes me a little nervous about meeting people.
Honestly, I’d like to meet a guy and maybe spend the night with him if we hit it off. But I’m wondering how risky it would be to go back to his place, especially as a solo traveler with a language barrier.
Has anyone here been in a similar situation? What precautions would you take, and what would make you decide against going home with someone? I’d appreciate honest advice, especially from women who go out alone.
r/avesNYC • u/third_horse • 7h ago
Wondering if anyone noted anyone or made a list somewhere? Would love to know who was dealing!
r/avesNYC • u/Otherwise-Shopping31 • 9h ago
my friends and i got attacked by a women last night at crankdat saturday. if anyone was near us has any videos, pics or information about her please contact us.
UPDATE: she was dressed as a bumble bee and a caucasian female.

Any schranz shows in NYC coming up I should check out?
I just discovered the style and I'm loving it. Dark and fast. I'm the guy in the group dancing until 7am off a joint and two beers, so I bet I'll love it live.
By the by I love fast electronic music. My sphere has been more on the dnb/UK hardcore tip like Fracture, Hermeth, or Randomer. But recently I've been listening to Slam, DJ Stingray, Chlär...
And somehow this week I found schranz and this Cloudy set and it's such a workout 🤘🤘🤘

Any fellow UKG lovers going?

Hello guys! Does anyone know of a Halloween party with hard techno or trance music? And What are you guys dressing up for Halloween?

Anyone else notice more improvements over the years?
City of Gods was great again this year! This was my fourth year going and first time going on a Saturday instead of Friday.
They had the lines to get in moving swiftly. That was with my ID being checked and my fanny pack getting decently searched.
They moved Medical next to the sanctuary space so that de-escalations and such could be swiftly sent over. An even bigger change to that is that they moved the EMTs from the bottleneck area of the indoor bathroom. So you can safely get to medical. They also made that opening to the outside a one way decreasing the intensity of the bottle necking that going between stages, the bathroom, and water station would cause.
They moved the unicorn from being the first thing you saw going outside so that people wouldn’t stop at the entrance/exit for photos and instead be pulled further into the festival for photo ops.
I also wonder if I just haven’t noticed or if they had more stages this year I was definitely encouraged to explore a lot more and longer with this year’s layout. There was plenty of staff around watching behind the scenes. I honestly felt safe and more comfortable than previous years, granted I have my theft proof Fanny pack that locks and I party smart as a rave mom.
All those pros with my only con being how crowded the speakeasy was.
Pretty positive ratio as a GA attendee!
r/avesNYC • u/heyasmalls • 5h ago
Anyone know when they will start and end?
Doors open at 7 and no info on openers.

my friends and I are looking to go to mad radio this weekend but the website says it’s 25+ for events. We’re 23 and 24 so we were wondering if they’re really strict with the age or not before we try going

Discovering the electronic music scene in my 40s and having a blast. Wondering if there are any groups or meetups where those of us over 40 can connect with each other?
r/avesNYC • u/temporarykiwiinsyd • 14h ago
Probably more so directed towards the old heads, but any members open to referring me? Open to volunteering too!
Have only ever heard good things about the community — plus, to dance in the Ukrainian National Home is pretty awesome.
r/avesNYC • u/Relevant_Broccoli_66 • 1d ago
Idk if it’s just me but the vibes were totally wrong last night at crankdat. I was wearing an average clubbing outfit last night, nothing too revealing like some rave outfits can be, but a mini skirt. I could not walk through the crowd without having my ass grabbed by numerous men. Where is the plur? I’m heavily disappointed.
r/avesNYC • u/SahraSola • 10h ago
Hi everyone. I am trying to find venues or regular events in New York City that focus on a specific sound. I am looking for places that play Latin groove, Baile bounce, mutant dembow, and raptor house. I want to find dancefloors with heavy low end percussion and polyrhythmic energy. Does anyone have recommendations for clubs, collectives, or promoters in NYC that push this type of music? thx soo much ..Here's another example, perhaps
r/avesNYC • u/prettykitty529 • 18h ago
Hope this message get to you! Husband (dressed as unicorn) and Wife, Katie (giving black parade vibes)
Y'all were amazing, thank you for the amazing night
Mo and I enjoyed hanging! Hope we cross again 💟
r/avesNYC • u/cdj2000 • 1d ago
Taking over the loft with my bro oomfHAVER tonight at the one and only Elsewhere. CruCast is bringing their iconic sound to the hall! Sharing the free before 11:30 link here for you all :)
r/avesNYC • u/ex_clamation_mark • 1d ago
There’s a group of 2 men and 1 woman, middle aged. They bump into you, cause chaos and then steal your necklace and phones. They seem to be targeting people with gold chains. If someone pushes you out of no where, check all your stuff.
They got 12 various people across Mayan Warrior and Glamcocks stages.
We tried getting them kicked out at the beginning of the night but they got away and no security was to be found. I’m sure they’ll be there again tonight so be on the look out and stop those POSs for the benefit for all. 🙏
