Choreo & Cocktails: POP DIVA NIGHT comes to Buffalo Iron Works on Sunday, August 9th!
Choreo & Cocktails Summer Series: POP DIVA NIGHT
Choreo & Cocktails is a themed dance experience where guests learn choreography inspired by the music of the night while enjoying a fun, social atmosphere at Buffalo Iron Works.
Each event is built around a different theme. The Summer Series themes include: Boy Bands, Taylor Swift, & Pop Divas, with choreography, music, visuals, cocktails, and surprises designed to match each event..
The evening starts with a 30 minute choreography class where the host Danny breaks everything down in a way that’s approachable for all experience levels. After the first section, there’s a 20 minute halftime where guests can grab a cocktail, refill water, take photos, catch up with friends, and experience a themed surprise unique to that month’s event.
After halftime, everyone comes back together for another 30 minute class to put everything together and really settle into the choreography. Once the class portion wraps up, guests are encouraged to stay while the night shifts into an open dance party where people can let loose, hang out, and keep the energy going.
Some people come to fully dance. Some people stay more lowkey and just want to enjoy the vibes. There’s no pressure to perform and no expectation to be perfect. The goal is simply to have a good time.
Specialty cocktails and full bar service will be available for purchase throughout the night along with photo opportunities and interactive elements during the event.
