NEXT LEVEL VIBES: 70s Soul. 80s Hip-Hop. All Night Long.
2026-04-09 18:00 - 21:00 (America/Chicago) | House of Blues Chicago, 329 North Dearborn Street, Chicago, IL, 60654, United States
A throwback dance party at the House of Blues Foundation Room—live music, 70s/80s attire, dance battles, and nonstop vibes.

Step into a throwback night where classic sound meets modern energy at the 13th annual Generations Live Fundraiser.
Next Level Vibes, presented by Generations Live, is a high-energy, two-floor live music experience celebrating 70s soul and 80s hip-hop and pop inside the iconic House of Blues Foundation Room. Guests are invited to dress in their best 70s/80s-inspired looks, hit the dance floor, and move freely between two live performances.
Throughout the night, enjoy a cash bar, dance competitions, and an attire contest (with $250 in prizes) celebrating the bold style of the era. VIPs also enjoy early entrance, passed hors d’oeuvres, and a Meet & Greet opportunity with the artists. Whether you come to dance, vibe, or show out with your fit, this is a night designed to be felt—not just attended.
One floor brings hip-hop, R&B, Pop, Reggae, and other clasics to life such as the legendary tracks Freaks Come Out at Night, Funky Beat, and Friends with DJ Grandmaster Dee of Whodini. Another floor sets the mood with Mario Abney and the Abney Effect (as featured on Good Morning America), a five-piece Chicago band blending soul, jazz, and brass into a sound that keeps the party moving.
Come dressed. Come ready. Come for the vibes.
