of THE ACADEMY OF COUNTRY MUSIC AWARD FOR Club / NIGHTCLUB OF THE YEAR!

A Chicago institution since 1997, Joe’s Bar has been bringing the heart of Nashville to the Windy City for nearly three decades. Joe’s is a staple of Chicago nightlife and a destination for unforgettable parties, legendary live music, and nonstop sports action.

Our commitment to great entertainment hasn’t gone unnoticed—Joe’s is an 8-time winner of the Academy of Country Music Award for Nightclub/Club of the Year, a distinction that places us among the very best in the country.

Spanning 20,000 square feet, Joe’s is a warehouse-style venue located near Lincoln Park, designed to host everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations. With seven unique party rooms, we offer versatile spaces perfect for live music, comedy shows, private events, corporate functions, birthdays, and more. Simply put: no event is too big or too small—we’re here to help you host it.

Joe’s is also one of Chicago’s premier sports bars. With over 100 televisions and high-definition projector screens we can show every game at the same time. Whether it’s NFL, NCAA, NBA, or NHL, there’s no better or bigger place in Chicago to catch the action. We proudly host alumni and fan clubs including the Fighting Illini, Indiana Hoosiers, Florida Gators, Arkansas Razorbacks, and the Windy City Riot, home of Chicago’s Carolina Panthers fans.

Live music is at the heart of Joe’s. We host both national and local music acts, and over the years have welcomed artists such as Eric Church, Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert, Dierks Bentley, Randy Houser, Old Dominion, Riley Green, Megan Moroney, and many more. We also feature regular performances from popular local bands including Rod Tuffcurls & The Benchpress, The Boy Band Night, and The Ron Burgundy’s. Be sure to check out our concert schedule for upcoming shows.

From legendary Tipsy Tuesday parties to sold-out shows and game-day crowds, Joe’s delivers energy, authenticity, and unforgettable nights—every single time. Come for the game. Stay for the music. Leave with a story.
