2. Celebrate with Queen

If you are a Queen fan, 39 is a pretty exciting number! ‘39 is Queen’s 39th song. Mercury is the planet .39 astronomical units away from the sun. And Freddy Mercury is a legend. So what better age for a Queen-themed party?!
Outfit the party with tons of Queen crest decor, play ‘39 (and your other Queen favorites) on repeat and challenge your guests to come dressed as Freddy Mercury (give them some heads up though — they’ll need time to grow out their mustaches!).
If you’re in New York City, you can rent this very cool and vibey rock space in the heart of Hell’s Kitchen (pictured above). It’s an incredible space that has its very own rock and roll history, but you’ll have to read the listing to learn more about it. Plus, just look how great it is! You won’t even have to worry about decorations when you book a Peerspace venue like this.
It also has dozens of glowing reviews from past renters, which is little surprise once you learn more about it. One reviewer shares: “The space looked exactly as depicted in the photos and description. Location, size, everything was great and exactly what we needed for the size and type of event I was hosting. Communication was clear, responsibilities were clearly delineated, I am very satisfied, we had a great party and Chris and JP were easy to work with. I would recommend this space.”
