Located in Chicago’s historic Uptown neighborhood, the Aragon Ballroom is one of the city’s most storied entertainment landmarks. Originally opened in 1926, the venue is celebrated for its stunning Moorish architecture, designed to resemble a Spanish village courtyard under a twinkling, starlit ceiling. This grand setting provides a uniquely atmospheric backdrop for live performances, blending old-world elegance with the energy of a modern premier venue. While famously a hub for legendary musical acts, the Aragon has become a destination for some of the biggest names in stand-up comedy. Its expansive stage has hosted high-profile specials and tours from icons like Bill Burr, who filmed a Netflix special here, and Dave Chappelle. For comedy fans, a night at the Aragon offers the chance to see world-class talent in a majestic, historic space that captures the classic spirit of Chicago’s vibrant performing arts scene.
