ARC Music Festival will return to Chicago on September 2-4, 2022 and we couldn’t be more excited! ARC was one of our favorite festivals in 2021 so we are ecstatic that it’s back for round two, and we even get an extra day!
This year’s rendition of the festival will once again feature a stage takeover by Elrow! For those who don’t know, Elrow is a very immersive, psychedelic stage. There aren’t LED screens behind the artists for visuals like you would find at a typical stage. This is because the entire stage is the visual! There are actors and dancers on stage, inflatables get thrown through the air, confetti canons go off during every set, and there are a ton of UV reactive art installations hanging from the ceiling. An Elrow stage is something you just need to experience! No amount of words nor photos can truly embody the energy of an Elrow stage!
This year’s line up is once again stacked with some of the best house and techno artists in the world! The line up also features Chicago house artists such as Gene Farris, Green Velvet (Half of Get Real. Claude VonStroke is the other member), Derrick Carter, Hiroko Yamamura, DJ Lady D, Mike Dunn, Chip E, Ron Carroll, and Honey Dijon. Some other artists whom you won’t want to miss include: Charlotte de Witte, Claptone, Cloone, Nora en Pure, Chris Lake, Carl Cox, Adam Beyer B2B Cirez D, GiolÌ & Assia, Gorgon City, and Lane 8. If you want to check out any artists prior to the event, their Spotify profiles are linked to their names ;).
