Atlantic City’s New LGBTQ+ Club’s Grand Opening is Friday
The ByrdCage, Atlantic City's new LGBTQ+ club officially opens this Friday. The new club broke the news on Facebook recently.
We are thrilled to announce that we will be opening our doors to everyone for our grand opening event on January 24th 8pm.
We value each and every one of you and would love to extend an invitation to enjoy cash bar, dancing, music and fun times! Your support means the world, and we can't wait to celebrate together.
We appreciate your patience as we navigate through this exciting time.
The announcement that a new LGBTQ+ owned and operated restaurant and bar is opening in Atlantic City has to be a source of joy and pride for people who live in one of the most gay-friendly places in the nation.
There are differing opinions on how long it's been since the last full-time gay club Atlantic City has been open, but it has easily been more than a decade.
The ByrdCage is Coming to Atlantic City
The ByrdCage, at 3426 Atlantic Ave. (formerly the swingers club, Role Play Lounge and most recently Good Dog Bar), will be a restaurant and bar and much more, says creator Jason Tell, an award-winning caterer and party planner recognized as Philadelphia Magazine’s “Best Party Planner.”
Jason has over three decades of experience in the food and beverage industry, having worked in or owning restaurants in Philadelphia, Atlantic City, and Cape May County.
His concept for the ByrdCage aims to offer a unique and inclusive space for everyone -gay and straight alike-to enjoy.
“We are so excited to bring the ByrdCage to life,” says Tell. “This is not just a restaurant or a bar—this is a space where the entire community can come together, celebrate, and be themselves.
What's Planned at the ByrdCage
The press release for the ByrdCage promises a lively brunch menu, happy hour specials, and nightly dining.
The first floor will host a piano bar where patrons can enjoy great food and music in a relaxed atmosphere. The second floor will be home to entertainment with drag shows, theme nights, and plenty of fun and inclusive nightlife experiences.
Tell says he’s ready to breathe new life into the spot that was once a former swingers club: “The sex swings may be gone, but I’m ready to bring back a little kink…or at least “kinky boots” to the location!”
The Facebook page for The ByrdCage puts out this challenge.
"Atlantic City, get ready to embrace a new kind of space where Love wins, Everyone's Welcome, and the Good Times Never Stop?
From fabulous food and drinks to unforgettable vibes, we're crafting a place for you"
