    Do only Millennials attend these parties? They are quite pricey but the pictures show very young people. I guess us oldsters should fade away.

    • BTSNYC says:

      Hey Anna! I’m not on the “young side” anymore either lol. But, even though these parties have quite a lot of young people, you’ll also find an older crowd – except on these electronic music parties or others that last all night long. The ones on rooftops are always nice for us (me and you)! 😉
