House of Couture Thursdays

Northalsted's official after-brunch party at Hydrate Nightclub. Every Sunday afternoon starting at 2pm, DJ Laura B keeps the dance floor packed with go-go dancers, cheap drink specials ($3 Bud Lights, $4 wells until 4pm), and free pizza to fuel the crowd as brunch vibes transition into full dance floor energy. It's the neighborhood's go-to Sunday party — unapologetically fun and the kind of vibe that keeps people coming back every week.

A wildly inventive new play by Matt Schutz about identity, ambition, and reimagining your future when the one you trained for disappears. Olivia was supposed to be a pro soccer player. Now she's on the couch, watching the windows across the street and turning strangers into stories. Funny, queer, and emotionally unfiltered—this is the kind of theater that makes you feel seen.

Sidetrack's legendary Sunday afternoon tradition — the whole room singing along to Broadway classics and pop standards across the Main, Cherry, and North Bars. It's the kind of joyful, communal sing-along that makes strangers harmonize together, with rooftop and video bars packed with people who know every word. A weekly ritual that's become the neighborhood's favorite reason to start the weekend early. Arrive early, bring your voice, and settle in for an afternoon of pure theater magic.

Cell Block Chicago's weekly underwear and fetish party takes over the backroom every Sunday afternoon. Come in your tighty whities, jockstraps, or favorite gear for a friendly, unapologetic cruising scene with backroom beats and a packed dance floor. No cover charge and free clothes check make it easy to show up from 3pm to close and stay all night.

Free Texas Hold'em every Sunday night at Meeting House Tavern — no gambling, no stress, just a damn good game night. Whether you're a beginner learning the ropes or a competitive card shark, you'll find a welcoming table full of regulars and new faces alike. Play for prizes, bring a friend for bonus chips, and settle in for cards with people who know how to have a good time. Low-key, social, and exactly the kind of thing that keeps regulars coming back.

A dress-coded, consent-forward dance party that's a love letter to 60 years of psychedelic counterculture—from the sexual revolution and disco to queer club kids, acid house, and rave. Two floors, two soundscapes: the main dancefloor upstairs with Jenny Fox, Kimkilla, and Jon McCray spinning acid and techno; the Dungeon downstairs with Nangobi and Rosha. Expect psychedelic visuals, candy-colored chaos, and a vetted community built for getting lost. Arrive before 10pm for discounted entry.
