About this Event

Support NoVA's only LGBTQ+ bar! Reserve your spot for free so we have an accurate guest count.

There is no cover. There also is no group tab to worry about; order whatever you want on your own. The Go Gay DC Pride happy hour officially starts at 6 p.m. on the front, enclosed patio. The menu is at https://www.freddiesbeachbar.com/menu . Ask your server about the happy hour drink specials (which last until 7 p.m.).

Parking is usually available nearby on the residential side streets.

This fun happy hour gathering brings LGBTQ+ folk, including Allies, together for conversation. Feel free to invite all your friends to join you there.

Metro Directions: Be eco-friendly. Crystal City Metro station on the Yellow/Blue lines is the closest Metro stop. When you arrive, go out the station, walk towards your left to 18th Street and then veer right and walk under the Route 1 overpass to Eads St. Turn left and walk to 23rd Street. Turn right. Freddie's is up 23rd Street just a block. Just look for the rainbow flags on the right side of the street!

Freddie's was voted the Best Virginia Bar by Washington Blade readers. Don't like a smoky bar? You are covered: Freddie's is a smoke-free establishment. (Ashtrays are provided in back of the building if smoking is 'your thing').

Freddie's is an LGBTQ+, straight-friendly restaurant and bar. It offers Happy Hour daily from 4-7 pm. https://www.freddiesbeachbar.com/

Arrive at any time that's convenient for you.

There's no need to print out and show your Eventbrite ticket.

This event is a safe, inclusive space for everyone under the rainbow. This event is for 21+. Remember to bring your ID, as everyone who wishes to drink alcohol is carded of course.
