Evening event crossword clue

20 Across · WSJ Crossword, May 20, 2026 · 6 letters

Answer
SOIREE
SOIREE (6 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Evening event” is SOIREE. It appears as 20 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 20, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Look Both Ways” by Gary Larson, and it fills 6 squares running left to right from row 4, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with S and ends with E, and contains 4 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
