Looking for something different to do in Buenos Aires? Do you like the idea of a secret spot, special nights where you can sing and share an evening under the stars with people who want a night that’s just as unique as you do? Introducing Clapper parties—and here’s when the next one is happening on a secret terrace in Palermo.
Here’s what these secret, traveling parties are like—you have to experience them at least once
Clapper parties are traveling parties where musicians, poets, and DJs take over a traveling terrace—usually in Palermo—to give you a one-of-a-kind night where you can meet new people who want to sing, chant along, revisit old favorites, sing new songs, listen to poetry, and have a drink—all under the starlight.
Buenos Aires is full of large-scale events. These rooftop parties are intimate, for a small crowd, and have a spirit of connection that combines live music, shared poetry, group sing-alongs, and an impromptu dance floor under the open sky. It sounds like a great plan to let your voice be heard and lose yourself in dance until the night is over—whether you join with friends or take the plunge and go alone.
What each edition of these intimate parties is like in a different spot around Buenos Aires
At each event, the chosen secret venue (a terrace, a basement) becomes a haven where 12 singer-songwriters gather in a circle to share their original songs, in an atmosphere of total intimacy and connection with the audience. Then come the cover songs we all know, the spontaneous sing-alongs, and those knowing glances that only happen in a place where everyone looks at each other because they know the song.
The night wraps up with a DJ who gets the party going with beats that’ll have you dancing nonstop. And yes, nobody stands still. Never been to a party on a secret terrace? There’s always a first time.
Clapper parties aren’t just a party—they’re an experience where music takes center stage, but so do friendship, art, and connection. Perfect for a different kind of night out, a first date, or simply to let yourself be swept away by something new right in the heart of Palermo.
When is the next secret party, and how can you join?
Clapper parties are usually held once a month. To find out the date of each edition of these parties on a secret terrace, check the organizers’ Instagram, since that’s where they announce the dates, the musicians and artists for each session, and the location of the secret party for that date.
