We’re officially wrapping up August, and the ember months are here! Can you believe it? Christmas is just 118 days away! How exciting!
Speaking of exciting, last week’s Group Therapy had some people talking online. A few party-goers were surprised (and disappointed) not to hear the familiar afrobeats tunes they were expecting. It made us wonder—when it’s time to let loose, where do you want to be, and what makes you feel at home?
Do you prefer to hit the dance floor to some sweet Afrobeats? Or maybe you’re more into laid-back, cutesy events like book readings? How about karaoke nights, sip-and-paint sessions, or a full-blown concert experience?
This week, we’re encouraging you to explore and find out what gets you excited. Whether it's trying out a new type of event or sticking with your favourites.
