by Anastacia Betters on This is the perfect place to come and dance. The music ranges from top 40 hits, to much-more obscure hip-hop and techno, to classic 80s hip-hop. I was in here one night and the DJ served up some Kanye followed up by - I kid you not - Vanilla Ice. Word to your mother. Since this place is clearly meant to be a place where you can come dance, people come here to dance. A lot of them, and this place is tiny so it fills up fast and not everyone can fit. A few friends of mine couldn't get in one night because they were above capacity. However, if you get here early (say around 10:00pm) not only do you beat the cover charge, but you'll also beat the crowd. There's also a nice selection of unique drinks, most of which are of the sweet, less alcoholic variety (better for the light-weights in your party) but more importantly, the drinks actually aren't that expensive!
by Gretchen J. on Great, great idea, lots and lots of fun. Adults-only at the museum night each week? Whoever thought of this better have gotten a nice raise and promotion. Yes, it can be a bit of a scene, but I tend to block out the annoyances and just enjoy my (jeans-clad) self. There seem to be a good mix of ages everytime I attend, from the newly 21 to gray-hairs. I was at the first Nightlife wayyyyy back in February and predicted it would be a hit. It has grown in size but is still a fantastic bargain. $12 for non-members; $10 for members for full access to the museum, stroller free AND a DJ and fun lectures and events? Strolling the Aquarium with adult beverage in hand? I'm sold! That first night, it was amazing how sparse the crowds were compared to now--my friend and I strode right into the Rainforest, no line at all. There are some annoyances--if you arrive even 1/2 hour after it opens at 6PM, you probably aren't going to stand a chance of getting a Planetarium or special lecture of the night seat. I do wish CAS would put aside a certain number of tickets for the later comers, after all, this is Nightlife, not early evening life, right? Or they should reduce the ticket price after 7:30, since those people won't be seeing the Planetarium or the Rainforest, due to early closing and ticketing. And definitely get in line for the Rainforest the moment you arrive. The best way to see CAS is to start at the Rainforest and take the elevator down from there to the Aquarium, but if you aren't in line for the Rainforest by 7 or so, you probably won't be admitted as it closes at 8PM. Basically, if you arrive at 7 or later, your choices for activities are the aquarium and the other exhibits, with none of the "special" stuff, which is annoying if that were to be your first and only time at CAS. It's called "Nightlife" but is geared completely towards early arrivals. So that's the bad...the good is the aforementioned lack of strollers, the ability to see most of the aquarium without being trampled, a DJ playing as you peruse the place and the telescopes on the roof--I saw Saturn one night, very cool!
