Not sure how we haven’t mentioned Midnight City before, but that’s our bad. Scott Zumberg and Josh Burge have created a ridiculously fun party, and frankly, it’s time we started telling people about it.

If you haven’t been to Midnight City at 215 West in Ferndale, you’re missing out. And with no Happy Endings this month, 😭 consider this your August substitute.

Even better, or considerably worse, depending on your taste, Happy Endings’ own Mike Trombley is guest DJing this Saturday, August 22. So there’s that.

Late ’90s and ’00s indie dance classics, plenty of surprises, and a little current stuff thrown in for good measure. It’s quarterly, so if you miss this one, you’re gonna be waiting a minute.

See you tonight! Party starts at 9pm 🥳

SATURDAY July 25 🎉 Mike & Mikey reunite for one night at Happy Endings. Expect the unusually usual mix of familiar favorites, overlooked gems, and songs that deserved to be hits in the first place. It's cheaper than therapy, more reliable than nostalgia, and considerably louder. We'll see you Saturday at Eastern Palace Club. No cover ♥️

Happy Pride! We'll see you Saturday! 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲. G**s, goths, sportos, motorheads, geeks, s***s, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, and everyone in between. We think you're all righteous dudes.

Join us on Saturday, June 27th at Eastern Palace Club for the third annual Pride edition of Happy Endings! What started as a long-overdue celebration three years ago has grown into one of our favorite traditions.

For us, this night has always meant more than just another party. With one of us proudly part of the LGBTQ+ community and the other a committed ally, Pride is woven into the DNA of Happy Endings. Our party has always been a space where 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲, but Pride Month gives us a chance to amplify that spirit and celebrate community, resilience, and joy at a time when LGBTQ+ people continue to face challenges to their rights and self-expression.

As always, we're offering an alternative to the mainstream Pride soundtrack, embracing the rebellious and uncompromising energy that has long fueled q***r culture and underground nightlife. Expect selections from DAF, Erasure, Soft Cell, The Smiths, The Slits, The B-52s, Bronski Beat, Buzzcocks, Kitchens of Distinction, Le Tigre, Dead or Alive, Suede, Throbbing Gristle, Pet Shop Boys, Bowie, and all the First Wave, post-punk, synth-pop, Britpop, and alt classics you’ve come to expect from Happy Endings.

More than a dance party, this is a celebration of community and solidarity. A fitting end to Pride Month, and a reminder of why these spaces matter.

Not entirely sure how it's been two weeks since our May party, but time continues to move at a pace none of us agreed to.

Anyway, here are the pics from the party ♥️.

There were at least 48 other things happening that night, yet somehow y'all still found your way to EPC. We appreciate your dedication to keep doing this with us.

We celebrated three birthdays, welcomed a lot of new faces, and danced with all our favorite familiar ones. Thank you for showing up, for dancing, for bringing your friends, and for continuing to make this little thing we've built together feel bigger than a party.

Next up: Pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Our third annual Pride edition lands on Saturday, June 27th, and we're closing out the month the way we always do: dancing together. Showing up for each other. Celebrating q***r joy. Remembering why Pride still matters. All are welcome.

If previous years have taught us anything, it's that June arrives with a little extra sparkle and a noticeably weaker commitment to calling it a night.

We'll see you back at Eastern Palace Club on Sat, June 27th with peak summer energy 🎉.

See you Saturday! 🎉

With all the other parties happening Saturday, we thought it might be a quieter night, but you proved us wrong from the jump 🙏🏼.

So many new faces, along with all our favorite familiar ones. Spring has officially sprung, and the positivity in the room was palpable. That's what happens when we come together and dance it out.

We've got big plans for the coming months: surprise guests, our Pride edition in June, ticket giveaways, etc.
We'll see you back at EPC on Saturday, May 30th, with warm air, even warmer energy, and Mike's birthday celebration 🎉🎂💗.

For whatever reason, I’ve been thinking about this lyric a lot lately. “Only when you’re dancing can you feel this free.”

Yes, it’s Madonna, “Into the Groove,” one of my favorites. But it hits differently now. Since the 2024 election, this party has become something more for me, an outlet, an escape, a reset. There’s something powerful about dancing with your people, all of us navigating the same noise, looking for the same spark of joy. For a few hours, it really does feel like freedom.

And yeah, we play Madonna. No irony, no guilt. She’s always been a boundary-pusher, a champion for the LGBTQ community, and part of the culture that shaped spaces like this. I still remember buying Like a Prayer and Disintegration on cassette the same week in ’89, released just a few weeks apart. Both felt right. Both belonged.

That’s kind of what this is about. Finding that feeling again. Together. On the dancefloor.

See you Saturday 💗
