South Chicago

A neighborhood in Chicago

The New Celebrity Lounge, at 2020 E. 83rd St., is the primary live-music anchor in South Chicago. A small lounge with an outdoor patio, it draws a mature crowd and programs music ranging from live bands to DJs, with Sunday afternoons a particularly festive draw. Weekly programming goes beyond straight music: karaoke kicks off at 10 p.m. on Thursdays, and impersonation nights run every Wednesday. The room also pulls in DJs and has hosted rap and poetry open mics. The lounge pitches itself as a place where "mature vibes meet sexy energy," catering to adults 25 and older. South Chicago does not register in city-wide live-music guides the way neighborhoods like Uptown or Logan Square do, so the Celebrity Lounge carries the neighborhood's nightlife largely on its own.
