The Selden absolutely nailed their grand opening! The energy was electric from the moment we arrived, the line stretched out the door all night, which speaks for itself. The space, a beautiful revamp of what used to be Junkees, looked stunning and felt like a completely fresh experience.
What made the night truly special was the crowd itself...such a diverse, vibrant gathering of community that reminded you exactly why spaces like this matter. As a kickoff to Pride Month, it couldn't have been more perfect.
Our bartender for the evening was a standout. A young guy who was knowledgeable, efficient, and somehow managed to check on us regularly despite the packed crowd. That kind of attentive service on opening night is impressive and really set the tone.
The one downside: the drag show kept getting pushed back throughout the night, and we ended up leaving around midnight without getting to see it. A little disappointing, but understandable for an opening night with so much going on. We're already looking forward to coming back to catch the show. The Selden is a welcome and needed addition to the Reno community! read more
