Japp's Gobble & Groove Party

About this event
Eat, drink and dance before the big feast. Kick off Thanksgiving weekend at Japp's with Gobble & Groove, a Thanksgiving Eve celebration featuring live music, late-night dancing and drink specials. The Nomads take the stage from 6 to 9 p.m., followed by the resident DJ from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m., spinning tunes for a night out with friends, family and everyone back in town for the holiday. Enjoy $8 boilermakers featuring Miller High Life paired with a choice of El Jimador, Rumple Minze or Old Forester. Gather your favorite people and celebrate the night before Thanksgiving at Japp's.
Who's playing
The Nomads take the stage first and set the tone for the early part of the night. The bar's resident DJ follows them and spins the rest of the evening. The mix is built for a crowd that wants to dance, not sit and listen.
What to expect
A lively, loose night in a historic room with no TVs, so the music and conversation carry the evening. Boilermakers are $8, pairing Miller High Life with El Jimador, Rumple Minze or Old Forester. The party moves from a live set to dancing without much of a break.
Why go
Japp's began as a hair and wig shop on Main Street in 1879 and became a bar again in the 1990s. It reopened in 2010 as a cocktail bar focused on classics from the 1700s to the 1950s. For a holiday-season party in Over-the-Rhine, the building's history makes it a good setting for a night out.
