If you're over 30 and living in Los Angeles, you might have recently been served an Instagram ad for a "coffee rave." These morning dance parties are popping up in little corners of the city, offering a sober way to party and start your day at 9 A.M.
Early Birdz describes itself as "L.A.'s most conceptual coffee rave festival," instructing people to "wake the flock up, and get off your phone and dance." The concept was created by longtime friends and collaborators, Michael Kay Keshishian and Noro Kocharyan, both artists and entrepreneurs who run multiple businesses in the food and entertainment spaces.
Early Birdz is trading shots of tequila for vitamin shots and IV drips, and mixed cocktails for iced vanilla matchas, all to the beats of local DJs. A $55 ticket gets you in the door, a $155 ticket gets you behind the booth, and for $35, you can even bring your child.
