UPDATE June 15, 2023
ARC has dropped its daily lineup, including several new back-to-back additions.
Chicago house festival ARC is back for its third year, and the lineup is as hot as ever. The organizers of the Labor Day dance party, scheduled for September 1-3, 2023, at Union Park in Chicago, IL, announced the first wave of its 2023 lineup on Wednesday, featuring 52 artists, with more to be announced in the future.
Notable artists announced in the initial lineup drop include Black Coffee, Derrick Carter, Dombresky, Eric Prydz (Holo), Fatboy Slim, Nina Kraviz, Peggy Gou, Tinlicker, and Vintage Culture, among others.
Arc also announced nine unique back-to-back sets, featuring both local and global artists.
“House. Techno. Chicago,” that is ARC Music Festival in a nutshell. The festival is a celebration of all things house music. Considering the genre was created by DJs and music producers in Chicago in the early to mid-1980s, it only makes sense to host a festival dedicated to the music in the city where it all started.
And the party doesn’t stop when the festival lights turn off each night. ARC After Dark allows festivalgoers to keep dancing well into the early morning hours. The After Dark lineup has yet to be released, but we’ll have it here once it is.
Three-day Arcitect (GA) passes are $349, three-day GLOBAL (VIP) passes are $499, and three-day ICON (VIP Plus) passes are $1,299. Tickets are currently on sale.
ARC Music Festival is an 18+ event.
