The Barbary Is So Back

Get your body ready to sweat in close proximity to familiar strangers again, because The Barbary is officially reopening this weekend—and we could cry actual tears of joy.

If you know, you know. And if you don’t know, well… we don’t know what to tell you.

On the edge of Fishtown, The Barbary has long been one of those rare operations where the night can go anywhere. More than a bar and more than a club, The Barbary has always felt like its own universe—gritty, dark, and unpredictably euphoric. After being closed for what feels like a cultural eternity (real time — three years), it’s finally swinging open its doors and welcoming us back into its loving embrace.

You can bet on new lighting, an upgraded speaker system, incredible sets, and that beautiful moment at 1:45 a.m. when you realize you haven’t checked your phone in hours. Heaven.

And hey—if you’re looking to pregame before the dance floor or cool off after the set, check out our latest: Spring Slushies: 5 Bars Doing Frozen Cocktails Right. 

Let’s make this weekend one for the books.
