SUNDAY, MARCH 26

SCW Kickoff Party: Mountaineering Club x Hey Love PDX Past Event List
Enjoy drinks from Portland's stylish '70s-inspired lounge Hey Love—minus the road trip. The award-winning tropical cocktail bar will take over the Mountaineering Club to sling "Illegal Mezcal-laced delights," while its resident DJ Hanukkah Miracle will spin and the plant shop Glasswing will shroud the scene in a verdant "disco plantscape." Bonus: You'll get to feast your eyes on the sunset from the vantage point of the Mountaineering Club's lofty rooftop.
Mountaineering Club, 6-10 pm

Twisted Snifter Past Event List
Break out the Aqua Net and tease your tresses to the high heavens for this Sunday night hair metal party. You'll get a chance to pile on the mascara and wigs, show off your sick air guitar skills at a casual competition, and sip Cognac Ferrand and Plantation Rum libations.
Trade Winds Tavern, 8-11:45 pm

MONDAY, MARCH 27

Happy Accidents Pop-Up Bar Past Event List
You may have heard of the Albuquerque cocktail bar Happy Accidents by way of the Netflix mixology competition Drink Masters, in which owner Kate Gerwin placed second. You can try their beverages for yourself at this kickoff party featuring drinks made with Ford's Gin.
Rob Roy, 8-11:45 pm

No - Low
Past Event List If you're interested in dipping a toe into the waters of the "sober-curious" lifestyle, check out this evening of non-alcoholic and low-alcohol cocktails presented by Focus on Health beverage consultant Alex Jump in collaboration with the barware brand Mover & Shaker.

Coffee Cocktail Pop-Up at Roquette Featuring Half Step from ATX Past Event List
Espresso martinis have come back with a vengeance.

Austin's lively Half Step Bar will join forces with Mr Black Cold Brew Liqueur and Diageo.
Roquette, 7-11:45 pm

THURSDAY, MARCH 30

Under the Sea Dance Party and Six-Year Anniversary Party Past Event List
Ariel would surely approve of this aquatic-themed drag dance party marking Navy Strength's sixth anniversary, with music from "saline queen" DJ Rowan Ruthless. Quench your thirst with drink specials from Jägermeister and Teremana Tequila, and come early for a "limited-edition surprise." Costumes are strongly encouraged, so don't forget your shell bra.
Navy Strength, 8-11:45 pm

Pigs & the Hounds Past Event List
What could be better than puppies and potables? Snap some selfies with a pair of scruffy stars from the local Irish Wolfhounds Society (onsite from 4-7 pm) whilst savoring WhistlePig and Limavady cocktails. Pizza will be available for purchase by the pie or slice, and the canines' cameo will be followed up with live music from George Grissom.
Belltown Pizza, 4-10 pm

SATURDAY, APRIL 1
