Do you like skateboarding? Do you like trivia? Do you like trivia about skateboarding? WELL, if you answered yes to any of those questions, then you should swing by the Das Days Community Center on Tuesday night. In continuation of all the Adidas events poppin off this past week, there should be some other cool stuff to look out for like a movie night on Wednesday. That one's gonna have popcorn and beer.

Michelin-starred Wujie on the Bund is home to this month's Wine and the City social dinner. With whites in the spotlight, this world-class vegetarian restaurant is pulling out all the stops. Think Avocado Roll with 9-year Grown Lanzhou Lily Bulb Mash, Rosemary Salt-baked Yunnan Porcini and Ginkgo with Porcini Jus, Hunan-inspired Pizza with Wild Rice Stem and so much more. Each of the eight courses comes with a wine pairing, so be sure to come revved and ready to eat/drink.

While Elevator's Donghu Lu run is coming to an end, they're going strong with a packed line-up to carry you through these last, dark days. Medusa is just one of them. Their extension may have been cancelled (with their final party on the 26th), you can bet your ass they're not going quietly. Come for Mau Mau. Come for the glitter. Come for the kiss stained walls, red lanterns and memories of Baijiu Robot.

Oct 19-20: Sean Patton

The biggest up-and-coming act out of New York, he's been on Comedy Central and Viceland's Flophouse. He's also got a wild story about a gig that turned into round-about rendezvous in a massive, massive house. With meth.
Oct 19-20, 9pm, RMB170. Kung Fu Komedy, see event listing, buy tickets.
Oct 20: Wednesday Campanella

Blackbird recently unveiled their rooftop terrace - The Third Floor as it's so aptly named - and are celebrating the incoming of fall with a p-a-r-t-y. There'll be delicious snacks (like lamb shoulder), hand-selected beverages from the Wine and the City team (like Jermann Pinot Grigio, Friuli, 2016) and an opportunity to break out your fanciest flannels and favorite sweater. We've got a few good weeks of weather this season, so make the most of it over at Columbia Circle this Sunday.

Until Oct 21: STOMP

STOMP combines dance, comedy and music into a theatrical whirlwind you’ll never forget. This production uses matchboxes, brooms, garbage cans, Zippo lighters and more to create the energizing beats in this full-of-life stage show. We went, and it lived way beyond out expectations. It's energizing, accessible and just so much fun. Seriously, go check it out.
Oct 11-21, RMB180-780, 7.30pm. ET Space, see event listing, buy tickets.
