BLACKFINN CLOSURE WREAKS HAVOC ON BETHESDA EVENT PLANNERS (PHOTOS)

The unexpected closure of BlackFinn has inconvenienced more than those seeking a Bud Light after work in downtown Bethesda. With its large space and convenient location, BlackFinn was a prime spot for events, fundraisers, and parties. When the doors locked for good, event planners found themselves scrambling.

It seems Brickside Food and Drink, a new bar 2 blocks down Norfolk at 4866 Cordell Avenue, has been the primary beneficiary. While an unaware few are approaching the locked doors of BlackFinn, many signs are being posted by event planners on those doors. And most of those events - planned prior to the sudden closure - have been shifted over to Brickside. At least one event, Cocktails and Connections (pictured above), was canceled.

While this has been a major inconvenience, fortunately there are other venues in town which have event space to accommodate future functions.

To Brickside we go!

    I noticed that District Trivia has moved over to Brickside since Blackfinn closed. Officially effective tonight! Wednesdays at 7pm.
