ARC Music Festival 2023

Unlike Chicago, Few cities can claim a feeling, an idea, and a community as their identity. House music remains the city’s gift to the music world, a sound that has shifted shape and style as it travels, relinquishing boundaries and connecting fans. Such stands as the ethos of ARC Music Festival.

From the basement clubs of Europe to the beaches of Ibiza to iconic festival stages worldwide, each set has had its own lasting impact on the sounds born from the warehouses of the Midwest. ARC is the galvanizing force by which electronic music’s vast scenes and tribes may converge for an immersive and distinctly Chicago experience, representing the home of house music - which has ironically yet to be represented on the global festival circuit until now.

With brighter days ahead, ARC charts a path forward for dance music’s diverse creeds, offering a much-needed flagship for Chicago and a new marquee date on the international festival calendar.
