Rent a dance party venue in Chicago, IL

Come shake a leg at any one of Chicago's happening dance venues. Whether you're looking to celebrate a birthday on the dance floor, a wedding party, or something more, we have no shortage of dance floors in this city. Dancing isn't always the main event; but you'll need to be sure there is space for it if it's part of the festivities. And if dancing is the main event then the venue selection is even more important. The history of the venue can also play a role, especially if your dance style has cultural or historic roots.
Any dance venue should have plenty of floor space so dancers aren't crowding and bumping into one another. Dance studios are a great place to begin your search as they offer lacquered flooring, spacious surroundings, lighting, sound equipment, and other amenities. Mirrors give you a great view of your moves and you're sure to get tips from the staff and other dancers. If you need food and drinks prepared though, a restaurant, bar, or club can provide the dance floor as well as the grub. These venues are also better decorated than most dance studios and more experienced at hosting parties of all kinds.

As nice as an indoor dance party can be, with surround sound and air conditioning, there's a lot of fun to be had in cutting a rug outside. Many Chicago bars, restaurants, and clubs have dance venues set outdoors. Even if they have an indoor space it's nice to be able to step outside and enjoy a cool evening with a drink, dancing, and quieter surroundings. Gardens, fountains, pavilions, lighting strings, and other touches complete the package.

Some venues sit on the top of skyscrapers; rooftop party venues where you get to enjoy the city's world-famous skyline as you whirl the night away. Other dance halls sit on the lakefront in front of Gold Coast historic mansions.
Choosing a venue means looking into the square footage since that determines how many guests can dance. Venues that list cocktail-style receptions make this easier since that's code for standing capacity. Still, you'll want to plan for a bit more room for a dance party. Regardless of your style preference, Chicago has a dance party venue just right for your next event.
