Help the Homeless: The Samaritan Inn is throwing an event at the Cotton Mill to raise funds for those in need of shelter and food in the North Texas area. Dance to party tunes from the Emerald City Band, have your photo snapped by a professional photographer and get your butt sketched by a um… a professional butt sketcher. Buy tickets at the door. Bottomless drink cups are also available for purchase. 8 p.m. – 12 a.m.
Freaky Friday: The Moxley Manor House is opening tonight and tomorrow for a special Friday the 13th haunting. If you’re a huge fan of nightlights and insomnia, head to Bedford to be scared out of your mind hang with chainsaw holding masked men. Monster Energy Drinks and the Assassination City Roller Derby girls will help with the fun tonight. $15-$17. Purchase tickets online or take cash to pay at the door. 8-11 p.m.
Saturday
Our Kind of Tea: The Common Table will be throwing a Belgium Tea Party featuring mussels, 12 different Belgium beer flavors and live jazz. The brew slingers also plan to dump out the rest of their Stella keg (RIP) between 2 and 3 p.m. to mark the last time they will ever carry the brand. Get there early to grab a seat on the patio and nab one of the special glasses they'll be gifting until they run out. 12-5 p.m.
Dance Party: Full Access and Insomniac have invited trance DJ Armin Van Buuren to spin at the Lizard Lounge. Blake Jarrell, who holds residencies at Marquee in Las Vegas and Amnesia in Ibiza, will keep him company along with dance DJs Johnny Funk and Luis Gonzales. DJ Yosh will keep the party rocking on the roof deck. Tickets are $45-$65. Doors open at 9 p.m.
Going out can be a gamble, so why leave it up to chance? Stack the deck every Friday by peeping Play's Weekend Bender.
