If you want to feel as though you're in Vegas, don your sparkles and head to TAO Chicago, the midwest outpost of the Las Vegas and NYC nightclubs.
Upstairs from the massive Pan Asian restaurant, the other half of the TAO Chicago experience is a 7,000-square-foot nightclub that you enter through 100-year-old Chinese doors then down a lantern-lit exterior alley.
Sip cocktails (but know that bathroom lines can feel interminable), order bottle service and peruse the multi-sensory scene in the intimate front nightclub space or the expansive rear room set underneath a 10-foot bell and hypnotic disco ball. The two nightclubs are separated by an operable wall that transforms into a one-room venue. Expect local and national top-tier artists and DJs like Machine Gun Kelly, Deadmau5, and Tiesto.

EXPERT TIPS BY:
Jacky Runice
Chicago Local Expert
- Best Nightlife, Dance Clubs: "Do yourself a favor and get there before 11 pm on weekends or entry is iffy."
- Recommended as Best Nightlife Because: Located in the building that was the onetime home of the Chicago Historical Society, TAO dazzles with mirrored pendants floating above the dance floor.
- Best for Dance Clubs Because: If BIG is your jam, you'll find it at the 34,000 square-foot venue TAO: sounds, sights, dance floor and crowds.
