We’ve survived 364 days of this arduous year, so let’s make the last one count. Kick 2017 to the curb, then kick it at one of our recommended New Year’s Eve events:
New Year’s Eve Dance Party At Uncommon Ground (3800 N. Clark), DJ My Boy Elroy herds drunks onto the dance floor while others scarf down food from a prix fixe menu that includes apple-and-pear brioche bread pudding and brown-sugar balsamic-braised short ribs. 5 PM, $35 music and drink, $45 music, drink, and food
Voyager Ring in 2018 with DJs, visual art, and the echo inside the yet-to-be-announced industrial space where this underground party will take place. Keep an eye on voyagernewyears.com for updates. Time and location TBA, $100
