Upstairs at McCarthy’s is a weekly no-cover dance party hidden above one of Porter Square’s most well-known pubs. While the bands play downstairs, the second floor turns into a DJ-driven room built for people who actually want to dance — no bottle service, no top-40 playlist, no college-bar chaos.
Expect a mix of disco, 90s + 2000s throwbacks, indie-dance, funk edits, and feel-good remixes that keep the energy high from 10:30PM–2AM every Saturday.
