Bar 1 Events - McGees, Duffy's, Wrightwood Tap, Redmonds, Durkins, Maeve and Fion Wine, Chicago

There's so much to do around Lincoln Park and Lakeview, it can be hard to know where to make your plans on any given night on the town. Bar 1 Events makes the choice a little easier thanks to a partnerships with seven taverns up and down the lakefront, such as McGee's and Duffy's.

The party aficionados organize events and excuses to go out and get a drink during the week. These include everything from weekly trivia nights and euchre tournaments to the 27th annual Headsucker's Ball—a crawfish boil and raucous Bayou bash that flies 2,500 pounds of crawdads in from Louisiana. Besides staging public get-togethers, Bar 1 Events opens the door to private events at any of their partnering bars.
