If you’re looking to party for the rest of Thanksgiving weekend, there are more than 200 D.C. bars allowed to stay open until 4 a.m. through Sunday, offering more time to imbibe across the District.
These special hours coincide with D.C. government and federal holidays.
For Thanksgiving, the extended hours last through Sunday, Dec. 1.
Things to do in the DC area: Holiday restaurant and bar pop-ups, DC Cocktail Week and more!
You may see extended hours at up to 277 establishments with liquor licenses that registered to participate in the District’s “Extended Holiday Hours” program.
Some bars eligible to stay open include City Tap House in Penn Quarter and Barcelona Wine Bar locations.
Any restaurant or bar on the Extended Holiday Hours list has the leeway to stay open until the wee hours of the morning but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re keeping late hours.
If your favorite watering hole is on that list, call before heading out to prevent disappointment. And, of course, drink responsibly.
The final extended service dates for the year will be the weekend after Christmas Day — including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, which are on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively — New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.
