Private Events
Among the congregation of Chicago’s brightest and most talented you will always find a rotating “who’s who” of celebrities, international DJs and other bold-faced names at The Underground. Located in the chic River North neighborhood this stylized sanctuary has elevated Chicago nightlife to unprecedented heights and is recognized as Chicago’s premier, upscale, cutting-edge nightclub where every guest is a VIP. Host your next corporate event, social occasion, landmark birthday celebration, branding reception, holiday party, fundraiser, client appreciation party or even a trendy rehearsal dinner party in this avant-garde re-creation of a top-secret, military hideaway complete with hand-carved cocktail tables, a giant illuminated world map, lounge sofa seating, two bars, and lighting as soft and complimentary as it is dramatic.
Upscale American fare makes for mouth-watering, homemade party menu selections that mirror the cuisine of our sister restaurant Rockit Bar & Grill. Our in-house catering kitchen allows our event planners to customize your menu with passed appetizers, carving stations, buffets and sweets which pair with our specialty cocktails created by our award-winning mixologist.
