Belly Up: Pride Beefy Boy Edition

The last Saturday of the month is for the sapphic community at Sidetrack. From 5-9pm, it's a space to connect with other lesbian and queer women in a welcoming, celebratory atmosphere. Good drinks, good people, and the kind of vibe that makes you actually want to show up.

Dorothy's fourth annual Pride kickoff brings the prom energy to the underground — expect a dressed-up crowd, a packed dance floor, and the kind of celebration that sets the tone for the whole season. It's the perfect excuse to dust off your best outfit and dance with people who actually get it.

Y2kiki brings back the early 2000s in full force—think low-rise nostalgia, flip phones, and a dance floor ready for it. Hosted by the Auxiliary Board of Center on Halsted, this isn't just a throwback party; it's a fundraiser supporting LGBTQ+ youth programs. Come for the vibes, stay for the cause.

Eight hours of nothing but Madonna—from the early club bangers to the deep cuts that actually made you feel something. Cell Block's backroom transforms into a full Madonna experience with a DJ who knows their way around every era of the Queen of Pop, a packed dance floor, and a crowd that's here to sweat it out. If you've ever lip-synced to "Vogue" in your bedroom, this is where you belong.

Sidetrack's Saturday night brings the energy — a packed dance floor, high-octane DJ sets, and the kind of crowd that knows how to move. It's the weekend reset this neighborhood has been waiting for since Monday.

Free hot dogs, cold drinks, and an easy Sunday hang at SoFo Tap. Noon to 3pm every week—no cover, no pretense, just a solid reason to get out and settle in for the afternoon with your people.
