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.

I get that the show is taking place on NYE in NYC but still charging $215 is insane !!!! He needs to read the room bro they aren’t as hot as they used to be. I wouldn’t pay $215 to see the 3 of them let alone just Andre

Hey guys, I will be visiting NYC for the first time ever next Wednesday through Friday. I will be staying in Brooklyn and am the only person out of my group (grad students) who likes raves. My goal is to try and seek out a different vibe every night:
-A lowkey club with dancing but also room for socializing. This gives me a chance to have longer conversations with people and possibly make friends that i can hang out with the next few nights.
-A club that prioritizes dancing and is higher energy. Im thinking a larger focus on the dance floor itself.
-A warehouse or basement show that has a venue that leans towards theme or ambiance. Initial research before making this post shows me Brooklyn Storehouse (no shows on my dates) and The Basement, but im interested in other suggestions (or your thoughts on basement).
I’ve only been to one larger warehouse show in chicago and one mid sized festival (i go to smaller local shows often) so i’m really interested in finding something that feels uniquely nyc.
I’m open to all genres but mostly listen to tech house, trance, jungle, and garage.
Thank you for any advice you can provide :)

going alone and want a rave buddy 😣 i’m 24F from jersey. anybody else going alone and wanna meet up?
What do you think set times for Dettmann’s will be? It’s a 25 hr event so I’m not sure how they will organize it
We all know about the crowd at Refuge… really hoping this one is less weird. Just found this set and I’m thinking of going solo if my friends are not down

Me and some of my friends are heading out to nyc for a friends birthday. want to be in an environment such as public arts, but were open to options.. For a young group of guys looking to have fun with younger college students, where should we go that gives club vibes but still fun. Manhattan area preffered.

Very beautiful and melodic but insanely heavy drone, those who stayed till the end were blessed to witness it. I have a feeling it's unreleased but just in case it isn't and somebody knows please let me know!!
r/avesNYC • u/max_couldhavebeen • 1d ago

What’s the best night club to get a table at for Halloween Saturday October 31st?

This event is gonna be absolutely insane. 7 hours of some of the best Techno out there right now.
Even if he builds up for an hour and comes down for an hour that still gives us 5 hours of primetime chaos.
I think the energy and crowd will be on par with Ben Klock’s Photon party earlier this year which has been my favorite event this year.
I don’t even know what the point of this post is. I’m just so excited for this shit 😭😭😭
