This past summer, Saturdays at Chestnut found their rhythm. We introduced our "Summer Chestnut Sunset Sessions," turning our open-air top floor into the perfect escape as the weekend began. The idea was simple: create a space that felt relaxed but had the energy of a great party, all set against the backdrop of the setting sun.
With a reservation-only policy, the vibe was always just right. As guests arrived, they were greeted with a soundtrack of smooth R&B, Afro House, and soulful dance music. The music was the heart of the evening, shifting from chilled afternoon beats to something more vibrant as the sky darkened, keeping the energy flowing naturally.
What really made these sessions special was the mix of people and the setting. The top floor was filled with a great crowd—friends catching up, couples enjoying the view, all mingling in a fun, casual atmosphere. As the sun went down, casting that perfect golden light across the city, you could feel a real sense of shared enjoyment. It was the kind of evening you wanted to capture.
For us, the Sunset Sessions were about offering a different kind of night out—something stylish without being stuffy. The response was fantastic, and it’s clear you enjoyed them as much as we did. That's why we're excited to make the Sunset Sessions an annual summer tradition at Chestnut.
A huge thank you to everyone who made the first season one to remember. We can't wait to see you back on the rooftop next summer.
