Flavorpill Media, along with Absolut Vodka, began “Lunch Break” parties in New York City in 2013. New York’s workers spend the lunch hour at a dance party instead of at their desks.
The Business Insider story on May 24, 2013, “Lunch Break Ragers Are Totally A Thing In New York City,” started the term “lunch break rager.” A similar term for the “lunch break rage” is the “lunch break rave.”

Media company Flavorpill, along with Absolut Vodka, have come up with a new party concept called Lunch Break.
Lunch Break is a one-hour, full-on dance party that brings the free spirit of nightlife culture to the middle of the day.
This one’s for the salad warriors — for the people who normally spend their lunch hour munching on chickpeas, replying to clients’ e-mails, or fiddling with their excel models.
Lunch Break offers an alternative. It encourages you to once in a while get out of your seat, bypass your usual chopped salad spot, and go to a rager for an hour. Have one drink. Dance. Then go back to work, sit in your seat, and get back to your normal routine.
