Check out Miracle on Seventh Street and Millennium Stage this weekend

Weekend Round-Up: November 26 and 27

Miracle on 7th Street

It is opening weekend for Miracle on Seventh Street.

Santa’s elves have transform Mockingbird Hill, Eat the Rich, and Southern Efficiency into one unified holiday drinking winter wonderland.

Owned by homegrown mixologist Derek Brown, the collection of bars on 7th Street in Shaw have been given a makeover with over the top decorations and a special collective cocktail menu.

In an interview with The Washington Post, Brown said. ““We’re trying to make cocktails at a high-enough level that if some cocktail geek comes in, they’re not like, ‘Oh, this is a dumb Christmas bar.'”

Miracle on Seventh Street will run though New Year’s Eve.


cowardUnder the name of The Cowards Choir, front man Andy Zipf and his band perform their signature blend of indie rock on Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage this Sunday, Nov. 27.
