Opa Welcomes El Malito for This Week’s Party

Opa’s weekly party series continues this Thursday, June 16, at 10pm with the second installment of Glendi, when Midtown Village’s modern Greek go-to, Opa welcomes DJ Rashaan and El Malito.

Each Thursday throughout the summer, Opa will host different parties featuring fashion, art, music and photography exhibitions. This week’s party isn’t going to block off the street, but it will give you a second chance to check out El Malito’s newest release Platypus, "a genre-busting, bi-lingual, global hodgepodge of deliciousness that is only the beginning."

El Malito will also be playing at Penn Treaty Park the night before for Waterfront Wednesday.

The party goes from 10pm – 2am and after last week’s turnout, I’m sure there’s a bunch of people craving cucumber vodka drinks…so get to Glendi and get your fill for this Thursday night’s party.
