Music Frozen Dancing returns on February 21, 2026!

Our epic, frigid little festival is back with a vengeance, right outside the Bottle on Cortez from 1pm until darkness falls. Brought to you by Empty Bottle Presents & Goose Island Beer Company. A glimmer of warmth during the doldrums of wintertime. Let’s have some fun, huh?
An incredibly badass lineup has manifested this year—
We’re pleased to welcome… LOS THUTHANAKA- the near-mythical sibling duo churning out incredibly hypnotic, blown-out dance noise, sure to heat y’all up out there. LIP CRITIC- the maximally juxtaposed electronic, hardcore punk, post-modern genreless New York outfit graces the stage. GOOD FLYING BIRDS- jangly, scrappy guitar-pop for the ages, our pals and neighbors from Indianapolis. SNUFFED- bludgeoning, Chicago hardcore to get the heart rate up. Last but certainly not least BODY SHOP- the on-the-rise post-punk, new wave craze hitting the streets and our hearts. Holy hell.
If you need a reprieve from the cold, we’ll have DJs DECODER and TRAKQWN inside the Bottle bringing that heat. Bar’s open. Holy hell.
As always, the block party is free to attend. This year we’ll be raising money on behalf of the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights with a portion of the proceeds used to keep Music Frozen Dancing alive and well and free to the public.
