Behind the scenes, there's a heartwarming story: Upstairs NYC's "Night Market" and MIKA Bushwick have a history of hosting unforgettable events together. Thanks to our incredible community, we have witnessed familiar faces returning time and again, becoming a valuable part of the Upstairs NYC family. When MIKA Bushwick closed its doors this March, we could not bear to see it go. But as they say, when one door closes, another opens and we decided to host this World Sake Day event in honor of MIKA, making it an occasion filled with respect and reverence!

Get ready to participate in an extraordinary celebration that brings together Sake culture, delectable cuisine, Asian craftsmanship, and the lively spirit of Union Square. This is more than an event; it's a heartfelt tribute to cherished memories and a toast to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates that promise to make this World Sake Day a legendary one!
