Ingenuity’s Speakeasy 2.0 is coming up fast! The 9 PM to 1 AM party will feature drinks, dancing, and a lineup of some fantastic DJs. If you haven’t been to the bridge space you’re in for a treat. The cavernous, industrial space opens out onto an open air bridge span with fantastic views of the city. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. That includes two drink tickets! It’s a great deal for what’s going to be one of the most talked about parties of the year. 8:30-10pm = Misterbradleyp 10-11pm = Stout XTC 11-12am = Fuzz 12-1am = P-10
