JUKE PARTY CHICAGO: THE ENCORE
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
We said one last juke. Chicago said run it back.
Last December, we called it the final chapter. Chicago had other plans.
Over 1K people came through and hundreds of people lined up outside and couldn’t get in. People flew in from out of town. The footage took over timelines, and the party kept getting shared long after the music stopped.
Y’all showed up. Y’all showed out. And y’all made it clear y’all wanted another round.
On Sunday, December 20th, Oochie Hefner brings JUKE PARTY CHICAGO back for THE ENCORE—a bigger night of the music, dancing, and Old Chicago energy that brought us together in the first place.
THE SOUNDTRACK OF OLD CHICAGO
We’re taking it back to the ’90s and early 2000s: JUKE, HIP-HOP, R&B, and SLOW JAMZ. The records you knew before playlists told you what to like. The songs that had your whole crew on the floor and somebody asking you for that slow dance.
West Side. South Side. East Side. North Side. Suburbs. Wherever you’re from, come ready to represent and have a good time.

$1,000 DANCE BATTLE — WALA CAM STYLE
The CHICAGO FOOTWORK & HIP-ROLL BATTLE is back, with a $1,000 cash prize on the line.
Bring your moves, bring your crew, and come ready to put on for Chicago. Battle registration and competition details will be announced.
DRESS LIKE YOU REMEMBER
Early 2000s attire encouraged. Pull out the throwback fits, lace up your gym shoes, and give us the version of you that used to stay on the dance floor.
ONE RULE: NO STANDING ON THE WALL.
You already know what you came for. Footwork. Hip roll. Juke. Grab a partner when the slow jams hit.
Last year, Chicago came together peacefully to celebrate our culture. We’re bringing that same love and energy into The Encore.
If you were there, you know.
If you watched it online, this is your chance.
If you couldn’t get inside, we heard you.
