White & Black weekend
Labor Day Weekend First Fridays Presents — White & Black Weekend
Two nights. Two looks. One grown, elevated celebration for the culture.
Blanc Mode is back and we’re taking over the National Veterans Memorial for an all-white night of high fashion and energy. Expect live DJs, a local artist showcase, signature cocktails, elevated bites, and VIP tables — all set against city skyline views on one of Columbus’ most stunning rooftops.
The weekend closes smooth with En Noir — an all-black day party at the sleek Royal Cigar Lounge. Think premium cigars, top-shelf cocktails, and head-nodding grooves in an lounge built for connection and a good time.
