AILA NorCal's NMD Fall Happy Hour

This event is a fantastic way for new members to connect and network, not only with each other but with the membership at large. The NMD happy hour is open to all AILA NorCal members

WHERE: Drake's Dealership, 2325 Broadway, Oakland, CA 94612— only a 10-minute walk from the 19th St. Oakland BART station. Some parking is available nearby in the lot and street parking.

If you have not been to Drakes before, the entrance can be a little tricky to find- the entry faces Peoples Barber Shop and is next to the pop-up Humphry Slocombe. It's easiest to access from the parking lot, in which case you walk towards the restaurants and it will be on your right before you reach Humphry Slocombe; or walking in from Broadway Street and going past Oakstop, Hive, Cafenated Coffee, and Humphry Slocombe, at which point, it will be on your left before you reach the parking lot.

Once you enter the main area, we will be at a set of picnic tables in the open beer garden area. Please note this is where prior AILA NorCal NMD events have taken place and is a different spot from our AILA summer party/happy hour spot (the little alleyway to the left).

WHEN: Monday December 1, 2025 from 5:00pm-7:00pm

GENERAL INFO:

As always, food and drinks will be provided! Please check the weather ahead and plan to dress warm as the event will be outside.
