Nonstop: Binh, cotton, S4M23, Shaun J. Wright, Sound Metaphor DJs, Vlada, Vladimir Ivkovic

About the experience

With roots in Massachusetts and Chicago, NYC’s S4M23 opens the night with a deeply informed ear and reverence for the dancefloor. She’s followed by the DJ duo behind Sound Metaphors, one of Berlin’s most beloved record shops. Outlaw’s COTTON is always a welcome sight on her NYC home turf, now bringing renegade spirit to floors around the globe. Another renegade spirit of sorts, Vlada is a resident of the beloved Waking Life festival and founder of the Spell party series, blending minimal-adjacent, acidic deep cuts and oddball old school techno in her vinyl sets. Chicago house head and Hercules and Love Affair vocalist Shaun J. Wright takes over for the morning, a beloved regular to NYC’s queer dancefloors. Two Nowadays residents very familiar to our floor tie it all together with finesse: Time Passages founder and newly minted resident Binh and psychedelic conjurer Vladimir Ivkovic. /// RSVP is $10 before 11pm and $15 before midnight. An RSVP is good for one person. If you're bringing friends, please have them RSVP here as well. We stop taking RSVPs at 6pm on the day of the party. In order to receive the RSVP discount, you must be at the ticket desk by the cutoff time and not just in line. It's wise to arrive early to make sure you're not standing in line when the time comes. An RSVP does not guarantee entry. Sometimes parties do sell out, so if you want to be sure you'll get in, it's best to grab a ticket in advance. /// Entry is at the discretion of our door staff. Online purchases are limited to four tickets maximum per person. If tickets are sold out here, we always hold a good amount at the door. We will do our best to admit those without tickets but entrance is not guaranteed. Nonstop tickets are divided by entry time. You must arrive during the hours listed on your ticket. For example, if you buy a "10PM–4AM" ticket, you must get here between 10pm and 4am. After you've arrived during your designated time window, you can stay as long as you'd like, so long as you abide by our safer space policy (more on that below). You're also welcome to come and go as you please. Re-entry is based on capacity and is not guaranteed. Violence, non-consensual touching, racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, ageist or other discriminatory language, and leering are not allowed within our walls or in our back yard. If someone says or does something to make you feel uncomfortable while you’re here, let us know. /// Accessibility: The wheelchair entrance to our indoor space is in the driveway, which is the access point most commonly used to enter Nowadays. During parties the driveway gate is locked, so please ask staff at the street entrance for assistance with entry. All of our bathrooms are gender-neutral. There is one accessible stall indoors. Just ask any Nowadays staff member for the key, and they can show you the way. During parties, seating is available both on and off the dance floor. While we don’t have a dedicated quiet space indoors during parties, the booths next to coat check are a little quieter, and the deck and back yard a little quieter than that. Most nighttime parties include the use of strobe lights and water based haze.
