R&Bae Wednesdays brings a smooth, sultry vibe to Hakkasan Nightclub's typically high-energy atmosphere. The weekly series blends contemporary R&B with hip-hop influences, creating a mid-week escape that feels more intimate than the typical Vegas club night. DJ Franzen helms the decks, spinning a carefully curated mix that leans into the genre's melodic side while keeping the energy flowing on the dance floor.
This particular Wednesday features Roy Woods, the Toronto artist known for his moody, atmospheric take on R&B. His sound fits perfectly with the evening's aesthetic—think hazy vocals, introspective lyrics, and production that moves between downtempo grooves and club-ready beats. The setting at Hakkasan, with its multi-level layout and dramatic lighting, provides an interesting contrast to the music's more relaxed sensibility.
The event offers both general admission entry and table reservations for those wanting a more comfortable home base for the night. The 21+ crowd tends to skew toward fans of the OVO Sound aesthetic and anyone looking for a Wednesday night option that trades the typical EDM assault for something with more soul.
