Have you heard about the newest gathering spot in downtown Raleigh? The Bend Bar opened at the end of 2024 at 853 West Morgan Street, between Irregardless Cafe and Trophy Brewing & Pizza. Pop-Up Raleigh’s newest Trophy collaboration opened in April 2025. Sunset Social at The Bend, is a casual gathering space that connects local creatives with the Raleigh community. Once at month you can expect to find original art, pottery, sweet treats, fashion, woodworking and small batch goods nestled between the expansive decking and twinkle lights. The Middle House (previously State of Beer’s 2nd location) will be serving up delicious food and beverages for all ages. Sunset Social dates are April through October, 4th Thursdays, 5-8pm. After a successful 2025 season, we continue to grow while sipping cocktails, supporting local creatives and gathering with the Raleigh skyline as our backdrop.
The next Sunset Social is Thursday, October 22nd, 5-8pm.
