The best birthday party venues in the East Village

If you've been dreaming of a nightclub that only plays your own extremely specific Spotify playlists, Heave Can Wait makes that dream possible. One of the most iconic music venues and clubs in the East Village, Heaven Can Wait offers options to rent out their swanky, chandelier-clad spaces for birthday parties, complete with a personal DJ.

Whether you want to sit back with a drink and listen to your favorite songs or want to dance the night away, you can choose from their bar and lounge rooms to host your ideal celebration. The venue provides an array of unique amenities, like a small stage for a band to perform and customizable lights and projections.

The largest space, the Front Room Bar, can host up to 100 guests.

Under the main cocktail lounge of B Lounge NYC is the Whiskey Cellar, a small venue perfect for intimate birthday parties. Inspired by prohibition-era New York, the Cellar's dimly lit, cozy vibe is an ideal location for a casual cocktail party or a more elaborate Gatsby-esque bash.

B Lounge NYC serves tapas and creative craft cocktails, including an extensive menu with 11 different martini variations. Their signature lychee martini is available for only $10 during their happy hour, which runs until 9:00 pm each evening.

The underground space can host up to 50 guests. On the weekends, you can book an early evening five-hour slot starting at 5:00 pm, or plan a late-night event, which gives you access to the space until 2:00 am.

For anyone who watches American Idol and starts seriously considering whether or not they should audition, a party at Sing Sing Avenue A might be a great start to your musical career. Whether you're hoping to become the next big thing or just want to plan a fun night out with friends, there's no better way to let loose than at a karaoke bar.

You can subject 2 - 45 of your closest friends (and maybe Simon Cowell, if you know the right people) to your unique vocal stylings in Sing Sing Avenue A's 14 party rooms. Each space features artwork depicting a variety of musical artists, from The Beatles to Miley Cyrus. When you're not belting your heart out, you can enjoy the venue's menu of spirits, beer, and wine.

Described as a "lively Jamaican-style diner," a birthday party at Miss Lily's 7A Cafe is sure to be a special event. From its strikingly vibrant facade to its vintage tropical interiors, the energy of this restaurant will get the party started as soon as you walk in the door. Available for private and semi-private events, the colorful atmosphere of this island getaway in the city will brighten up any birthday celebration.

The menu is inspired by the cuisine of its chefs' Jamaican upbringings. Try a little bit of everything with passed hors d'oeuvres or indulge in a family-style feast, both of which feature classic Jamaican jerk chicken. Treat your guests to an open bar serving Miss Lily's signature refreshing cocktails, like the Caribbean margarita or the house rum punch.

Miss Lily's 7A Cafe can accommodate small parties of up to 30 guests.
