NYCThirst Kickstarter Launch: Midtown Issue One

NYCThirst is launching its first Kickstarter to bring Midtown Issue One to life, the debut volume in a yearlong comic book style guidebook series that maps New York City’s bar culture one neighborhood at a time. This 96 page issue features original art, photography, events, and coverage of Midtown’s most iconic bar neighborhoods, including Chelsea, Times Square, Garment District, Koreatown, and more.

This project is the beginning of something much bigger. Throughout 2026, NYCThirst will release monthly editions that move across all five boroughs, creating a full collectible library of New York nightlife. At the same time, NYCThirst.com will update weekly with new bars, events, neighborhood highlights, and behind the scenes progress from each upcoming issue.

Supporting this Kickstarter helps launch the entire series and gives backers early access to the print and digital editions, exclusive merch, and future updates. If you love New York’s nightlife, this is your chance to be part of the first issue.

Midtown Issue One drops February 1, 2026. The journey starts now.

A New York City Bar Culture Guide

NYCThirst is the bar culture guide for the five boroughs of New York City. We have a detailed page for every drinking establishment in New York City. Our job is to give the user the best information we can gather about a drinking establishment.

We plan on being a hyper local business forward website. If you have trivia night, we would like to tell our users about it. If you have a drink special, our user will want to know. If you get the latest craft brew, we will tell people about it. A daily update of what is going on in bar culture in the five boroughs will appear on our site.
