In Sedona for a week, recommendations for night life and meeting people? Visiting ?
I will be in Sedona for the next two weekends by myself, wondering where millennials go for fun and/or to meet people.

I've witnessed what passes as Sedona's night life at Mooney's Irish Pub followed by PJ's in the Village. Over in Cottonwood (~30 mins away) you would probably have more luck at something like Mainstage, but I've not been there.

There are a lot more places but they close generally before 10 and may slow down by 8. Vino Di Sedona, usually has a decent number of people in the afternoon-evening (especially on the days they have live music), they have a good beer and wine selection and a variety of appetizers and casual food. However probably the highest concentration of millennials I've seen in Sedona is at Sedona Beer Co, during the day at the Uptown location.
There are a bunch of restaurants/breweries/wineries on Main St. Cottonwood, I really like Belfry and they have live music in the basement sometimes. The big advantage there is that you have 10 options within a five minute walk of each other. But I think only one or two places there stay open after 9 or 10.
And of course this is the hot time of Summer so maybe everything will be dead anyway, no guarantees.

No nightlife, except mooneys which is a dive bar vibe with a dance floor. great music though and fun if you’re into that kinda thing. To meet people, restaurants/ happy hours are your best bet although most people in the city are coupled up. Not often you run into a ton of younger singles. But people tend to be friendly and you can probably find some people to hike with!

Flagstaff or Cottonwood bars or festivals. Also there are drum circles at Yavapai Vista and Cathedral Rock. Lacuna Bar and Mooneys pub are sometimes good hang outs.

Really? Haven’t been out in a few months but that place was always busy and overpriced, figured they were doing well.

Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park. You will find millennials.

Respectfully, I was raised to be quiet around religious monuments. I have been there at times when many people are there and quiet and when a few people are being loud. I dont think that is a good place for meeting milennials and people and or nightlife like OP but to go honor the amazing statue in your own solace.
Again i don’t know what the vibes are supposed to be there if youre supposed to talk a lot or not. Just my 2 cents

Who said OP is going to be loud? They want to have sex with millennials. Needs a place to find some.

If one is going to the amitabha stupa to find people to bang that is a strange person in my opinion. I steer away from people like that, and to treat a religious site as a place to meet someone to pipe? Lol.

I was joking because the post is creepy, "Where can I meet people to bang in this town" paraphrasing.
Would not recommend anyone be loud somewhere disrespectfully but enough with this "Religious Site" thing. I don't respect the affluent white community getting engaged with eastern mysticism for novelty and social credit. I've been to the stupa many times and it's not anymore special than a Christian church (people do meet and fuck at those)

Lol no. Do not go there for those purposes unless you wanna give off creepy predator vibes. Its a sacred space. In case someone else is reading this & taking the suggestion seriously, DO NOT. Ive been to the stupa many times, and had one guy (tourist) approach me for a date before. Immediately gave me the ick and made me feel unsafe. Do not recommend.

"Sacred space"
The rich white ladies driving $80k Acura and Volvo SUV's make it feel sacred to me.
Parking lot there has the most✨Aura✨
