About Us
If you’ve ever felt like there’s nothing to do in Lafayette besides eat or drink, you’re not alone. That’s exactly how Parish Nights started — from one person’s search for something better.
At 23, I just wanted to make friends my age. I loved dancing, but every local dance community I joined was full of kind people who were mostly in their 50s, 60s, or 70s — amazing folks, but in a totally different stage of life. They had grandkids, retirement plans, and I was just trying to figure out my 20s. It was hard to find my crowd.
So I decided to build what I couldn’t find — a space for young adults to hang out, learn to dance, and actually connect. That’s how Parish Nights was born: a wholesome, welcoming, and safe community for 18–30s who want an alternative to the bar scene.
Every Friday night at Rejuven8 Fitness Studio, we come together to laugh, learn, and dance. You don’t have to know a single move — just show up. We’ll take it from there. Parish Nights gives young adults a reason to stay in Lafayette, to find joy, and to meet people who actually get what this stage of life feels like.
With over 90 five-star reviews and a growing group of friendly faces, Parish Nights is proof that when you make space for connection, people show up — and keep coming back.
Come dance with us, make new friends, and see why Friday nights in Lafayette hit different at Parish Nights.
