The Hive is soon to come alive again, according to a post Nov. 30 on Facebook by Mack Diebel, who co-owns the once and future First Avenue hotspot with his father-in-law Joe Pedeferri.

“The support and love of The Hive is truly special, one we had no clue resonated like it does,” Diebel wrote.
Diebel announced a trio of shows through December, beginning with a Christmas party and community celebration scheduled for Friday, Dec. 9. The free, 21+ event will feature music from locals Brian Jacobs and Kevin Dorin from 6:30 p.m.-9 p.m., and with a country dance party from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. with Devon Wade. Doors open at 6 p.m. and organizers suggest bringing a donation of canned food for the Bonner Community Food Bank or an unwrapped toy for the Lion’s Club’s Toys for Tots program. A portion of the bar sales will also benefit the nonprofits.
Realm Partners will present the Miah Kohal Band on Friday, Dec. 16, with the music starting at 8:30 p.m. Finally, The Hive is hosting an early New Year’s party Friday, Dec. 30 with The RUB. Tickets are $10 in advance or $15 at the door, available starting Friday, Dec. 9. VIP tickets and private booths are also available, starting at $20 per person.
“It’s going to be a ton of fun adding another heartbeat to Sandpoint’s thriving downtown,” Diebel wrote.
