This week
📞 Hotline TNT – Path of Totality @ Kingdom Boxing LLC | Tuesday (9/30) at 7:00pm – Weekend plans: shoegaze in a boxing ring, only in Phoenix. Kingdom Boxing is hosting Hotline TNT’s Path of Totality with Toner, alongside locals Commoner and Twin Star. Bring your earplugs, skip the shouting, the riffs will land harder than any right hook.
🧛 Drunk Dracula @ Drunk Shakespeare (The Rose Theatre) | Wednesday (10/1) at 7 pm – Heads up: swing by the Rose Theatre for Drunk Dracula, where one brave thespian downs five whiskeys while stumbling through Transylvania. Craft cocktails to your seat, spooky shenanigans on stage, and enough laughs to make Vlad RSVP.
🍹 The Valley Vibe @ Loloft | Thursday (10/2) at 6 pm – Phoenix’s favorite quarterly meetup is back with bites, drinks, and big community energy. Whether you’re a founder, freelancer, or just vibing with the local scene, this is the place to network without the name tags and awkward icebreakers. Come for the connections, stay for the curated food and chill vibes.
🕹️ Electric Bat Arcade 7th Anniversary Pinball Tournament @ Electric Bat Arcade | Friday (10/3) at 11:00am – Pinball is rolling into the desert as Electric Bat Arcade marks seven years with a 120-player anniversary tournament. Think retro bumpers, neon glow, and the kind of friendly smack talk only locals can deliver. Snag your ticket before someone else flips you out.
🖼️ The Shape of My Voice ~ The Artwork of Kristine Kollasch @ First Studio | Friday (10/3) at 5:00pm – Whether you’ve been ogling gallery walls for years or still think “mixed media” is a protein shake, drop into First Studio’s show where steel, ceramic, acrylic, and found gems collide into heart-specimen masterpieces. Only at receptions do the big steel pieces make their rare debut.
This weekend
🤠 Ranch Hands Cowboylesque @ Tempe Improv | Saturday (10/4) at 11 am – Saddle up for a midday dose of denim, dance, and daring charm. This all-male cowboylesque show is where burlesque meets boots, with a cheeky twist that’ll have you hootin’, hollerin’, and hollering for more. Brunch entertainment? Nailed it.
💌 Sympathy Card @ The Rebel Lounge | Saturday (10/4) at 5:00pm – Skip the Netflix marathon and head to the Rebel Lounge’s dance floor for punchy riffs from Sympathy Card, The Maybe Next Years, and NFDL. Tickets are cheap, it’s all ages, and we’re too old for mosh pits but still too young to stay in.
🎤 Chris Klemens @ Desert Ridge Improv | Saturday (10/4) at 6 pm – YouTube’s unfiltered king of sarcasm and street interviews is bringing the chaos live to Phoenix. Expect brutally honest takes, ridiculous audience moments, and plenty of off-the-cuff comedy. If you love your laughs with a little side eye, this one’s for you.
🔍 The Dinner Detective True Crime Murder Mystery Dinner Show @ Embassy Suites Tempe | Saturday (10/4) at 6 pm – Always wondered if your neighbor could be a killer? Tempe’s got the Dinner Detective, a murder mystery dinner show where actors blend into the crowd and your steak’s the only thing you’re sure is safe. Expect laughs, plot twists, and zero costume drama.
🎵 The Scottsdale Chorus @ Virginia G. Piper Theater at Scottsdale Performing Arts | Sunday (10/5) at 3 pm – If your Spotify playlist needs real harmonies, 80 voices here in Scottsdale tackle barbershop classics and pop hits with choreography better than your Zumba class. Six decades and six world titles in, this chorus is as uplifting as your first after-work happy hour.
