Up until now, our legendary baths parties only happened once a year (at best), and were usually sold out by the time most of you found out about them. We here at G&S have long hoped to make these amazing nights more numerous--as well as more affordable for all. Well, here it is: we're starting an after-work Friday night Balkan DJ dance night at the banya, curated by our longtime favorite DJ Joro Boro, former resident mixmaster at the infamous Mehanata (Bulgarian Bar). Our new banya has ridiculously delicious food served in generously shareable portions, so you could easily spend the whole evening there: steaming, eating, drinking, dancing...that's what we do! Fri 3/6 is the inaugural night. If it goes well, expect to see these at least once a month.
So...Break out your bikini or swim trunks, and join 100 artsy, funky (and nearly naked) New Yorkers for a steamy dance night at a real Russian Banya. Things will get sweaty on the dance floor with DJ Joro Boro curating an array of EthnoMesh DJs throwing down brass freakout, slum funk carioca, bangin bhangra, percussion insurgency, and cumbia from south of the wall: an uninhibited globalized party fed back into music without borders.
- Soak and sweat in the steam baths!
- Dance to gypsy music!
- Smoke free hookahs!
- Eat delicious ethnic foods!
- Get massages and platza treatments!
We will have the newly remodeled & sparkling clean baths to ourselves, with every steam room and sauna ready to please, plus a few hand-picked professionals on hand for the optional platzas and massages. There are three levels and multiple rooms to the space: Russian, Turkish and Swedish steam rooms, jacuzzi and cold plunge pool; poolside lounge and dance floor; hookah lounge and chillout room upstairs; plus a rooftop smoking deck.
This is the kind of party you always imagine, but can never quite find in real life...and may be the only one you'll come out of cleaner than when you came in.
Regular tickets: $40
- Full admission to the baths (7pm-2am) with access to a shared locker, plus a free drink, and free soup or salad with an entree order
Discounted tickets: $30
- Late admission to the baths (11pm-2am) with coat check only (no locker)
