Carreau Club · Sunset Park • $$
Toss steel boules over drinks and snacks at this sprawling pétanque bar tucked into Industry City. Whether you're plotting a birthday bash or just killing a Sunday afternoon, the vibe is pure Brooklyn: competitive but chill, with instructors who'll have you hooked on France's favorite lawn game in minutes.
Royal Palms Shuffleboard Club Brooklyn · Gowanus • $
Shuffleboard meets drag bingo in a high-energy social club where team names run bawdy and the vibes run boozy. Think DJs, birria tacos, craft cocktails, and yes—seriously good mocktails if you're staying sober.
East Williamsburg
A cozy comedy showcase where you bring the drinks and they bring the laughs. Expect solid lineups, intimate vibes, and a crowd that's actually having fun.
Brooklyn Heights • $$
Roll bocce balls down the bar while nursing cheap beers at this laid-back Brooklyn Heights spot that's equal parts sports bar and neighborhood living room.
Sunset Park
Expert instructors teach you to hurl hatchets at wooden targets in this sprawling Brooklyn warehouse. Expect friendly competitions, a full bar, and way more of a workout than you'd think.
Williamsburg
Hannibal Buress revived the old Knitting Factory into a 300-capacity sanctuary where comedy, music, and variety acts collide. Thursday nights bring free underground DJ sets spanning hip hop to jungle, while weekly stand-up and curated performances keep the vibe intimate and unpretentious.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
