Aragon Ballroom



Chicago's Aragon Ballroom, located on West Lawrence Avenue approximately five miles (8 km) north of downtown in the neighborhood known as Uptown, Chicago, was built in 1926.

Designed to resemble a Spanish village and named for a province of Spain, the Aragon was extravagantly appointed. The hall was an immediate success, and remained a popular Chicago attraction through the 1940s.

The Aragon's proximity to Chicago's 'L' (elevated railway) helped people flock to the hall, and crowds often exceeded 18,000 guests over the six open nights each week. Powerhouse radio station WGN broadcast an hour-long program from the hall each night to radio audiences throughout the Midwestern United States and Canada.

Aragon has hosted numerous 93XRT shows, including Snow Patrol, The Pixies, New Order, Moby, Flaming Lips, and Umphrey's McGee among countless others.
