Over the weekend, Brooklyn partiers celebrated the last days of summer at Tiki Disco.

No Brooklyn summer is complete without going to Tiki Disco. The dance party started in 2009 in the backyard of Bushwick's pioneer pizza restaurant, Roberta's, and hasn't stopped since. DJs Eli Escoboar, Lloydski and Andy Pry have spent the last six years expanding the party and throwing it at locations worldwide. Self described as "music for people who like music," this party is easy to love. Here are 10 tiki goers we had a chance to catch up with at the parties newest location, The Well.
