Coco Peru

Mainestreet strives to be the standard by which others are judged. Besides being one of the top dance clubs in New England, Mainestreet has featured a variety of shows from plays to drag to comedy. Favorite events are Top 40 dancing in our new dance room, the latest dance music and spectacular light show in our main dance room, karaoke, pool tournaments, killer women's tea dances, and summer nights which are best on one of our outdoor decks overlooking the village center.Mainestreet is also committed to its community and hosts many charitable events benefiting organizations such as the Frannie Peabody Center, ARS, Seacoast Gay Men, Ogunquit Playhouse Gives Back, Ogunquit Spirit of Giving, and more. Mainestreet remains the only club that is open reliably all winter, and is truly "Ogunquit's Party Central".
