Aragon is a good venue now

57 Upvotes

I’ve consistently heard that Aragon Ballroom is the worst venue in Chicago, so bad that it’s maybe not even worth it to go if a DJ you like is playing there.

After last night’s CDW show I think this opinion might be based on outdated info. The venue was completely fine. Sound was at least as good as it would have been at an outdoor Navy Pier show and better than at the indoor Navy Pier ballroom. I made it through security in less than 60 seconds, the bartenders were super nice, the crowd was amazing and I had as much room to dance as I would have at Radius. And I wasn’t prepared for how much character the venue has, it’s a very cool space.

It’s still not the best venue in town but it’s far from the worst; whatever problems they’ve had in the past, it seems they’ve leveled up. Or maybe Collectiv paid for additional production and staff over what's normal? If you are skipping shows specifically and only because they’re at Aragon, you’re missing out. I hope Collectiv starts booking more stuff there instead of Ramova.

37F - DOLLAWEEN

26 Upvotes

So, here’s the situation. I bought two tickets to Dom Dolla for Halloween weekend for my boyfriend and me. Plot twist: no more boyfriend

My friends already have plans, and there’s no way I’m missing Dom Dolla over a breakup.

A little about me: I’m outgoing, passionate, love meeting new people, and can pretty much have fun anywhere. I love good music, witty banter, and people who don’t take themselves too seriously.

I’m not looking for a date (although I’m not opposed to meeting someone interesting!). Guy or girl, I’m just looking for someone who’s genuinely fun to be around, has good energy, and enjoys good music. No expectations, just good company and a fun night out!

If you’re interested, send me a message!

Deadmau5 at Navy Pier today: Can I show up after 4/5?

0 Upvotes

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but will I still be allowed into the venue if I show up around 7? I could not find an answer on the official Navy Pier website or with my ticket info, which just says doors start at 4. Thanks for any help!
