House of Yes is the venue that turned a Bushwick warehouse into a genuine institution: aerialists dropping from the rafters mid-set, a dress code people actually plan for, and consent-focused door policy that other clubs have since copied. SLAYYYLAND is one of its high-camp dance nights, which means the performance schedule matters as much as the DJ booth. If you want to see why New York nightlife still has a reputation, and you are willing to put the outfit together, this is the room.
What to expect
A large standing dance floor with an aerial rig overhead, a mezzanine to watch from and multiple bars. Performers cycle through short sets between DJ stretches, so the room's attention shifts up and down through the night. The door takes the dress code seriously and consent guidelines are read aloud and enforced by staff.

Common questions
Is there a dress code?
Yes, and it is enforced. House of Yes theme nights expect costume or high-effort outfits; jeans and a T-shirt are a real risk at the door.
Can I take photos inside?
Not freely. House of Yes restricts photography on the dance floor and asks for consent before filming anyone.
What is the nearest subway?
The L train to Jefferson Street in Bushwick, about two minutes' walk from the door.
