afterlife 12am-4am

Up until now, there have been countless choices in Scottsdale to go get drunk and party. But where do you go after that, when you want to sober up, or get a coffee & a decent bite, or perhaps still keep the energy going? Currently, Scottsdale partiers have very few options as to where to go when the bars close, especially within walking distance. Quite often, the bi-product of 15,000+ partiers being let out on the street late night at the same time, and with minimal options, often has people driving intoxicated, starting fights, and otherwise making decisions that they and/or others may regret. Undeniably, Scottsdale needs a place to go to unwind, burn off extra energy, or cool off and sober up.

Afterlife is opening to fulfill that need, and will accordingly give people a safe & fun option; as opposed to making other decisions from a less than sober state of mind. With Afterlife being dead center in the heart of Old Town (in the space previously occupied by e4 nightclub) it represents a perfect location for bar patrons and partiers to walk to after the midnight hour approaches; and with new and unique offerings which are rare or even altogether absent from other Scottsdale nightspots. Patrons’ choices will include:

-The lounge, with an eclectic late night coffee bar feel, complete with a buffet provided by Cin-Cin bistro. There will also be a coffee and espresso Barista bar, as well as various hangover remedy products and elixirs. During certain hours, patrons can find eclectic solo entertainers as well; all in a chill, funky environment that offers a plush upscale setting to unwind and cool down in.

-The patio, for those looking for a little more action, but nothing loud or thumping, will be themed as a Vegas casino style smokers lounge, complete with novelty gaming such as blackjack, craps, and others rotated over time. Hookah fans will enjoy the various hookah stations, while other areas will feature cigars and flavored cigarettes.

-The Rock room will draw those in the mood for other types of games and a more intense & alluring setting. Venture upstairs and enter a darker, sultry, intimate environment, grinding with rock mashup beats, pool tables, air hockey, dance floor & dancing girls; all capturing the vibe of a Kid Rock video shoot in underground Prague.

-Lastly, for those who haven’t gotten their high energy dance craving yet satisfied for the night, submerse yourself in the Aqua room. This large, open trance-like room will have plenty of visual stimulation and energy to keep you going. In addition to up-tempo beats, there will be a healthy selection of energy products including drinks, energy shots, o2 shots, along with great visual effects and a vibe reminiscent of Miami’s famed, annual Winter Music Conference.

As previously alluded to, Afterlife aims to take significant socially responsible steps to give patrons other options than getting behind the wheel intoxicated, not only by the four above referenced interior options, but by external options as well. Specifically, Afterlife will be partnering with local transportation and “safe ride home” type of entities, to ensure patrons have plenty of choices to get home safe. In addition, Afterlife will not be serving any alcoholic products of any kind, as the entire focus of the venue is on activities and products that promote sobriety & fun for those 18 and over. Afterlife is also currently exploring a partnership with MADD, with discussions of donating a portion of the net proceeds to further their noble cause.

Afterlife cordially invites patrons from Old Town and all around the Valley to come experience a satiating & gratifying new option for late night, no matter what their mood or craving may be.
