If you’re spending Memorial Day Weekend in New York and looking to swap cliché beach getaways for something a little more elevated—literally—Arlo Hotels has your plans covered. With two stylish outposts in Manhattan and Brooklyn, Arlo Midtown and Arlo Williamsburg are turning rooftops and cocktail bars into curated hubs for movement, music, mysticism, and mayhem.
Here's a look at the can’t-miss events at Arlo Hotels this Memorial Day weekend, designed to engage your senses, recharge your spirit, and keep the energy sky-high all weekend long.
Ease into your Saturday with a 60-minute rooftop wellness session designed to reconnect you with your breath, body, and the skyline. Set 26 stories above the city at ART Midtown, this somatic yoga and meditation class is led by certified wellness guide Dí (@attentivewellness), whose small-group sessions blend movement with grounded intention. Expect 40 minutes of gentle yoga followed by sound meditation and breathwork. Mats and towels are provided—just bring yourself.
Comedy takes a secretive turn as Don’t Tell Comedy returns to Arlo Midtown with an exclusive lineup of comics in a hidden location—revealed only after purchase. Expect an intimate crowd, a high-energy show, and a no-phone, no-frills format that keeps the focus on the punchlines. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and drinks are available for purchase. Complimentary access is offered to Arlo guests, but capacity is limited.
Inside the Mirror Bar at Arlo Williamsburg, velvet drapes and flickering candles set the tone for The Tarot Lounge, a three-night immersive experience featuring professional tarot readers, esoteric storytelling, and spellbinding cocktails. The space has been transformed into a surreal haven of symbolism and mystique, where guests receive personalized readings while sipping custom libations like the tarot-themed cocktails inspired by each major arcana. Think of it as your spiritual pregame.
When the sun sets on Friday, ART Williamsburg turns into AFTERGLOW, a dusk-to-midnight rooftop bash co-hosted by Arlo After Dark, Azure Day Party, and Don’t Wait Up. Expect a stylish crowd and curated deep house sets led by special guest DJ Stephan Jolk. The open-air venue—complete with panoramic city views—offers an ideal setting for handcrafted cocktails, rhythmic immersion, and the kind of energy only Brooklyn rooftops can conjure.
Afrobeats meets rooftop elevation with STAMPED, a Memorial Day Weekend takeover driven by the unstoppable force of AYA & Friends. Expect a sonic journey through Afro House, Amapiano, and soul-rooted rhythms that command movement. Set against the Brooklyn skyline, this unapologetically African celebration fuses sound, community, and culture in a high-frequency setting that only intensifies as the sun goes down.
Memorial Day’s marquee rooftop event spans two full days of music, dancing, and sun-soaked decadence. Azure Day Party returns with global and local house DJs, a rooftop bar, and an outdoor pool to keep the atmosphere cool while the decks stay hot. Whether you're in it for the music, the skyline, or the scene, Azure promises a high-impact end to your long weekend. Premium table service and tiered ticket options available.
What sets Arlo Hotels apart isn’t just its chic design or rooftop views—it’s their ability to curate experiences that feel personal and intentional, from meditative mornings to electric afterparties. Whether you're reconnecting with yourself or cutting loose under the stars, Arlo Midtown and Arlo Williamsburg are redefining what it means to spend a long weekend in the city.
