Washington D.C. has a distinct reputation, laden with stoicism and grace as the capital city of the United States of America.

But to those who live there and those who take it upon themselves to visit, D.C. has another side – one that comes alive as the sun sets. Here are 10 best things to do in Washington D.C. at night, activities that stand out from the other nightlife of the nation’s capital.

1. See the Memorials at night

Washington D.C. has a set of distinct monuments that are dear to the hearts of many, which can be found around the Tidal Basin, a short distance from the National Mall. When night falls, each of these monuments – the Thomas Jefferson Memorial, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial and the Martin Luther King Jr. monument – are cast in soft light. Visitors can walk around the basin as evening approaches and see each one, with ducks on the basin’s waters adding another touch of nature. This is even more enjoyable when the cherry blossoms bloom, in the springtime.

2. Georgetown Waterfront Park

This park is fairly new – it was completed in 2011 and is now part of the National Park registry as well as being part of the Georgetown Historical District. It covers about ten acres (four hectares) and links parkland across the Potomac River, between Maryland and Virginia. Many come here in the evening to jog, get in a kayak ride or to simply stroll along the water’s edge. One key point of interest are the river steps, preserved from the days when the area was home to commercial shipping, until the riverbed gained too much silt, in the 1820’s.

3. Drinks at the Jefferson Hotel

The Jefferson Hotel is one of Washington D.C.’s premier hotel properties, and also one of the oldest. It has been in the same Beaux-Arts building since 1923 and became a hotel for luxury guests in 1955. That same grandeur exists in the Quill, which is the bar and lounge for the hotel. The intimate space implements many elements inspired by the former president the hotel is named after, Thomas Jefferson. Patrons can settle in for the elaborate cocktails that make this space so popular. In fact, it is best to check beforehand to see about space availability. One other feature is that the Quill has an outdoor patio, making it perfect for when the weather is reasonable.

4. See a show at The Hamilton

Tucked into downtown D.C., not far from the White House, is the Hamilton. The Hamilton first gained popularity as a fine restaurant, done up in modern classical style. But it has also become an elite venue for top-notch performers. The stage is on the lower level and at times can be quite packed with concertgoers. But that leaves visitors some leeway to sample some of the sumptuous menu items from the restaurant, along with great cocktails.

5. Little Miss Whiskey's Golden Dollar

If kitschy dive bars are one of your go-to activities when you visit a city, Little Miss Whiskey’s Golden Dollar fits the bill, with a unique twist. Located on the revived H Street corridor, in the northeastern part of D.C., Little Miss Whiskey’s employs a bit of New Orleans ambiance in its surroundings, even showing New Orleans Saints football games, during the season. At night, the bar and lounge become a meetup place for the fun and quirky, with live bands on certain nights, amid a constant purple glow.

6. The Howard Theater

The Howard Theater is a key part of the entertainment landscape of D.C., as well as being part of its history. It was built and opened in 1910, as the only major venue for performers of color, during the period of widespread segregation, in the city. These included legends like D.C. native Duke Ellington and Billie Holiday, to name a few. After many years of success, it fell into disrepair until efforts by local government and advocates in the community helped it reopen, in 2012. From then, the Howard has become a jewel of the city’s nightlife, with sweeping balcony seating and a restored façade that is striking to passerby. There are a variety of shows in which visitors can see world-famous performers, of all genres, on an almost daily basis, with ample room to mingle.

7. Tropicalia

Tropicalia is one of the few dance club venues in D.C. that gets you as close to the massive party atmosphere found in places like Ibiza, Spain, while still being in America. The club makes its home on U Street and has an easy décor that gives it a classy beach mansion feel – with potent beverages that have caught the attention of partygoers in the city, who visit frequently. Parties and DJ sets pack the house, sometimes to the point where you will be guaranteed to sweat.

8. The Gibson

For those who want to revel in an environment that takes you back to the era of the speakeasy, the Gibson captures that vibe, with ease. The bar is ensconced within a busy block on the U Street corridor and comes with a rather lengthy wait if you don’t call ahead to make reservations. But once inside, patrons are treated to a drinking experience with an extensive cocktail menu that offers up majestic options with colorful names. The environment is full of polished oak and ornate elements that evoke a Prohibition-era feel, that’s comfortable.

9. The Rock and Roll Hotel

While the name can be misleading – it’s not a hotel – the Rock and Roll Hotel does offer patrons a good deal of fun. The indie music venue used to be a funeral parlor. But in 2006, the property was bought and became the Rock and Roll Hotel and part of the revitalization of the H Street corridor. The space has three levels, including a rooftop deck and there’s normally live performances held on the main floor. There’s even a food menu available for those who want a bite, with bar snacks and sandwiches, served up family-style.

10. DC Improv

It’s the nation’s #1 location for comedy improv: the DC Improv, in Washington, DC! This comedy club has seen its fair share of talented, original comedic acts take the stage over the past decades, and has since its opening built a steady entourage of loyal supporters. Become the Dc Improv’s newest satisfied guest, when you book your visit to one of the city’s unsung gems. A diversity of headline acts thrill locals and visitors alike at regular intervals. When the sun sets in DC, the DC Improv becomes the absolute go-to source for an easy laugh in the metropolitan region. Whether it’s the local talent, the scheduled main acts, or simply the buzzing atmosphere that surrounds the club itself, it’s high time you made your way to the DC Improv!

Mac DeMarco yawns and announces Mac’s Record Label, eases out onto first-ever solo tour

He may not look it, but chill-out master Mac DeMarco is, IRL, a ruthless and savvy businessman. The woozy troubadour has just announced that, after spending five laborious years cranking-out records on the salt mines of the Captured Tracks label, he’s officially going into business for his damn-self with the founding of his OWN damn record label: Mac’s Record Label. Diabolical! “What’s the deal with that?” you ask? Welp…I’ll let Mr. Gordon Gekko himself explain: Hi, it’s Mac. We’re starting a record label; it’s called “Mac’s Record Label.” My friend Jen who plays drums in The Courtneys gave me the name. Also there are more shows. There you have it. The new label will be distributed globally by Caroline, but for more information beyond that, you’ll have to keep an eye on the Mac’s Record Label site, www.macsrecordlabel.com. Meanwhile: as alluded-to in his profresh-ass press quote, Mac has also announced his first-ever solo tour, entitled “the Purple Bobcat Next to River Tour” for some reason. The jaunt will follow a European and UK tour, including “performances at some of the largest U.S. venues he’s ever played, including the Hollywood Palladium, Red Rocks Ampitheatre, Central Park SummerStage, The Anthem in DC, and The Mann Center in Philadelphia.” Dude’s hit the BIG TIME, alright. But lest you think that DeMarco The Mogul is in danger of losing touch with the common man: he’s also announced that he’ll be partnering with PLUS1 for both of his upcoming tours, with $1 from every ticket sold going to support “local Girls Rock Camps and their work empowering girls, trans and gender-diverse young people through music education and mentorship.” All dates — and the extremely intimidating logo for Mac’s Record Label — can be found below.
