Update: Went on a Tuesday. Empty. But no cover. Walked in and turned around and left. Music was techno. Came back after 2am. Busy and music was better. Came back on a Monday DJ started at 2am. The staff is REALLY nice here. Good drinks. But the DJs could be better at their mixing skills. 4 stars.

The Drag Show was fabulous. Great vibe, dancers and entertainment. the Bottle shots of Jameson were a definite plus too. Everyone that worked there was great, nice and very accommodating. I would definitely go back. The only reason for minus one star is for the DJ after the drag show. The vibe and momentum was totally lost... however... we went down the street to Roscoe's and couldn't walk, breathe, let alone get a drink or to the bathroom. We went back to Hydrate for room to dance and drinks.

Came for a girl's night out and was not disappointed! With Groupon, my friend and I had 2 tickets with reserved seats right to the side of the stage and 2 glasses of champagne for a Saturday night show for $22.Hydrate does a fantastic job of making an intimate, fun atmosphere for this show, which included 5-6 talented female impersonators and 2 extremely attractive male dancers strutting through the crowd and giving entertaining performances over a 2 hour period. Several performances are interactive, and it's highly recommended you go on stage when invited. The friendly camaraderie between performers and staff is also very welcoming and truly makes this show a treat.Whether for a party, special occasion, or just a night out, highly reccommend this event to add to your evening in Boystown. Bring some singles and enjoy!

Me and my friend love going here because the atmosphere is so great and the music is amazing! We always have a great time whenever we go here 👍🏼😊...question though, what is the best night to go where you play reggaeton and hip hop?
