The weekend is full-throttle.
Province is now offering you an elegant rotation of gratis bar snacks (ceviches, apple-salad toast points), allowing you to conserve your cash for after-work essentials like the Smart Money: pear-infused Woodford Reserve bourbon served with a flaming cinnamon stick.
The New Wave specialists at Neo invite you to a night dedicated to the soundtracks of the '80s, including a large chunk of the John Hughes oeuvre and the occasional nod to Say Anything. Consider it a friend request from your old high school crush.
This under-the-radar dance loft in Wicker Park hosts an absinthe-fueled disco party that's a little bit like Vincent Van Gogh meets Studio 54. You'll be treated to gratis French absinthe Le Tourment Vert all night, and enough beats to make you grateful for both ears.
We can't talk about fight club, but pillow fight club? Well, they're not quite so hung up on rules. Just bring your softest cushion—a teddy bear will do in a pinch—and begin wailing on the crowd in this streetfight for softies. Feathers will fly.
