About the party

Wish You Were Here presents Thanksgiving Eve at Music For A While, a lower-level listening bar in Chelsea, on Wednesday, November 25. House music runs from 10 PM to 4 AM.

What to expect

An intimate, sound-focused room with cocktails and a dance floor, per the listing, which says capacity is limited. My take: this is for house fans who prefer a small, attentive room to a big club on Thanksgiving Eve.

Music and lineup

Deep house, afro house, melodic grooves and feel-good dance music, per the Eventbrite listing. No DJs are named, and set times are not published.
