Girl's Night Out at UnderGround Club
It's not every Wednesday that you can go all out for a girl's night out, but since this hump day is the last day before the holiday, why not make it count? Luckily, all you need is group of four ladies to get a free bottle of champaign and cocktails for the whole group. With a deal like that, it doesn't matter who's at the turntable – you know you'll be dancing all night.

Aurora White Room Goodbye to Summer BBQ Party
Following a White Room special guest on Sep 30, Aurora will be hosting a music-alicious BBQ to kick off October and bid farewell to the warm months we'll be leaving behind. From 5pm to midnight, DJs Pancake Lee+Mario Yu and Bobby Du will light up the rooftop with sound as skewers smoke on the grill. But the party doesn't end there, it just moves inside, where Pancake Lee+Mario Yu will start off the late-night segment of the party, followed by DJs Sun Meng, Kimo, and Eric Lee.

DJ Arquitect at the Sundown Party
Even if you're the type of orange cat to hate Mondays, take advantage of the holiday and go crazy on a Sunday for once. DJ Arquitect brings his unmatched style to Nali Patio every week, and the mix sounds even better with a few Skinny Bitches, which are buy-one-get-one all night, plus the free can you get with the RMB 50 entry ticket.
Electronic music day + Mid-Autumn Moon Party
Part workshop, part party, the Moon Project by Floso is an appealing alternative to moon cakes as a way to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Organizer LiUWEi will start things off at 5pm with a workshop designed to share what the moon can tell us about music, followed by live performances by Wen Liang and collaborators Zhou Fengling and Liyanzeng. Then the party really picks up a vinyl set by DJ Design (pictured at top), plus DJ sets by Kaize and Radiax.
