Indulge Presents: Above 125 Elevates Harlem’s Rooftop Scene with Music & Luxury
Harlem’s summer nightlife has reached new heights with Indulge Presents: Above 125, a weekly rooftop series transforming The Victoria Theater into one of New York City’s premier destinations for music, culture, and luxury. More than just a rooftop party, Above 125 delivers a thoughtfully curated experience that celebrates the legacy of Black music while bringing together community, exceptional hospitality, and breathtaking skyline views.
Set against one of Harlem’s most impressive rooftop backdrops, the weekly series blends the sounds of neo-soul, ’90s R&B, and early 2000s classics with handcrafted cocktails, elevated cuisine, and an atmosphere designed to foster connection. Every detail is intentional, creating an experience that feels equal parts celebration and cultural tribute.
Opening night featured electrifying performances from DJ Daytona and Harlem’s own DJ Wavey, who kept the rooftop energized with an unforgettable soundtrack of R&B favorites. Guests sang along to every lyric, danced beneath the city skyline, and embraced an atmosphere where music, nostalgia, and community came together effortlessly.
The culinary experience was equally impressive. Guests enjoyed handcrafted cocktails and elevated food offerings, while VIP attendees received early entry, access to a private buffet, and exclusive seating. Reserved section packages with bottle and cocktail service further elevated the evening, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming environment.
Located at 233 W. 125th Street atop The Victoria Theater, Above 125 takes place every Friday throughout the summer. VIP admission begins at 7 p.m., followed by general admission from 8 p.m. to midnight. The event is RSVP only, open to guests 21 and older with valid identification.
Guests can choose from General Admission ($20 in advance), which includes entry beginning at 8 p.m. and full bar access, or the VIP Experience ($40 in advance), featuring early entry, access to the private buffet from 7–9 p.m., a dedicated section, and full bar access. Reserved section packages with bottle and cocktail service are also available for groups seeking a premium experience.
What sets Above 125 apart is its purpose. Rather than offering a traditional nightlife event, each evening serves as a love letter to Black music and culture, celebrating the artists, sounds, and community that continue to shape generations. The carefully curated atmosphere encourages guests to connect, celebrate, and experience Harlem from one of its most beautiful rooftop settings.
With unparalleled vibes, exceptional hospitality, and some of the best rooftop views in the city, Indulge Presents: Above 125 is quickly establishing itself as one of Harlem’s must-visit weekly summer experiences. For anyone looking to experience the perfect blend of culture, music, luxury, and community, Above 125 delivers an unforgettable night above the streets of Harlem.
