DJ Arlini Martini

4.5 FREE

Details

Ready to spin back in time and sweat it out on the dance floor? DJ Arlini is taking over Drinks Lounge on Saturday, May 30, from 9pm to 1am, and she’s bringing a crate full of the wildest 45s in town.

This night is all about those tiny records with gigantic sound. DJ Arlini and friends will be flipping stacks of gritty garage bangers, stompin’ soul groovers y más—deep-cut tracks built for dancing, shouting, and maybe a little bit of dramatic lip-syncing between sips.

Expect a party that feels like a secret basement rave and a backyard cookout rolled into one: low-lit, high energy, and full of people who actually came to move. One minute you’re twisting to fuzzed-out garage riffs, the next you’re in a full-body soul shuffle wondering when you last sat down.

  • When: Saturday, May 30, 2026, 9:00 pm – 1:00 am
  • Where: Drinks Lounge
  • Vibe: All 45s, no skips—garage rock, soul stompers, and eclectic dance floor gems
  • Cover: Free event
  • Age: 21+ only
  • Who’s spinning: DJ Arlini & friends (@arlinim)

If you love your music crackling, your drums loud, and your dance moves just a little unhinged, this is your night. Grab your friends, lace up your dancing shoes, and let DJ Arlini’s 45s spin you into Sunday morning.
