Bottom Lounge

Bottom Lounge is a music venue set across multiple floors in a converted industrial building, with a main concert hall, open loft areas, and a rooftop space overlooking the city. The different sections can be used separately or combined depending on the type of event.

The building started as a metal factory and car repair shop in the early 1900s. Its conversion into an entertainment space came decades later through a major renovation.

The venue shapes the musical life of the neighborhood and draws music lovers from across the city. Visitors experience a mix of local and international musical scenes that help define the cultural profile of Chicago's West Loop.

The building can be entered from multiple points, and the layout means you may need to navigate across different floors depending on the event. Ask staff about the best entry for your specific event when you arrive.

Classic arcade games and pinball machines are scattered throughout the space, giving visitors something to do between performances. These machines add an extra layer of entertainment beyond the music.
