This was an amazing venue! We host this party every year, and because of the size of the event and our limited budget, we often struggle to get enough space. This venue is HUGE. There is a very large and attractive upstairs room, a very large bar with wrap around mingling areas, and a very large outdoor patio where we had a great band (Roseloft) perform! They also had terrific desserts -- much better than we often are able to get. We got a ton of compliments, and we will definitely go back to IO Theater when we have our event in Chicago again in a few years! Also, we would definitely recommend the band Roseloft. We asked them to learn "Soul Man" by the Blues Brothers so that we could do a little fun dance event, and they knocked it out of the park!

About iO Theater
Since 1981, The iO Theater has been the foundational institution dedicated to the development of long-form improvisational theater; we’ve helped launch the careers of countless comedians and actors like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Mike Meyers, and Jason Sudeikis (just to name a few).
Take advantage of our state-of-the-art theaters and sound systems, our multiple classrooms and breakout spaces, and our in-house kitchen and bar to make an easy full day of fun. We’ll take care of everything – a custom team-building workshop, dinner, and evening of laughter from the best improvisers in Chicago, you just bring your team.
Now, iO's creative spaces can become a background for your events, big or small!
