Viva la ViiV at Cornelia!
The all-new dance party at Aldine is in addition to the ViiV Healthcare Hydrate Stage at Cornelia Avenue, which has become well-known for its energetic circuit party vibe.
Again this year, Hydrate Nightclub is presenting a lineup of top DJs from around the world: Danny Verde, Jesus Montanez, Joe Pacheco, Jace M, Sam Gee, plus Draglicious performances, gogo dancers, and a special guest DJ to close Sunday night.
“The diversity and energy of Chicago parties really stands out to me. Every time I’ve been (to the city), it feels like everybody is positive, open and ready to have a good time,” Gee told GoPride.com. “I am very excited to be playing at Market Days; I know how much fun it is.”
