Phoenix Bark is NYC's biggest monthly furry bar event, bringing 100+ furries to Phoenix Bar in Manhattan's East Village. Part of the NYFurs ecosystem, it is free to attend and combines socializing with board games, darts, pool, and furry-themed drinks. No cover, no pretension, just a monthly furry night out.
Phoenix Bark is a social meet, not a dance event. The venue has board games, darts, pool, and an outdoor section. Furry-themed drinks are available at the bar. An AC and outdoor cool-down area is available for fursuiters.
The event runs from 10 PM to 2 AM. Fursuits are welcome but the venue is a bar, not a club. Registration is free and only required for headcount. You get a free sticker with registration.
Free entry. Register at events.nyfurs.org for headcount purposes.
