Nightcap En Blanc Rooftop Jazz & R&B

White attire, rooftop views and live jazz and R&B make Nightcap En Blanc a more dressed-up alternative to the usual Oakland night out. Held at High 5ive Rooftop Bar, the evening leans into the smooth, nostalgic side of neo-soul and R&B, with a live band alongside DJ Zo Blade and MakeItSaxy. The all-white dress code is part of the fun, giving the night a little ceremony without turning it into a formal affair. The music moves between live performances and records, so this is better suited to settling in with a drink and friends than chasing a packed dance floor from the start. It is also a rare chance to make an evening of the rooftop setting, with the music running from 7pm to midnight. For a date night or a reason to actually dress up, this one has the right balance of polish and ease.
