FAQs about Top Birthday Party Venues in Chicago, IL
Luckily, many private party venues in Chicago do offer special event packages that not only suit your budget but also assist you in every part of the planning. While some birthday venues might only provide the space and require you to take care of everything else, rest assured that plenty of birthday party spots in the city will be ready to cater to your special birthday needs!
Yes, you can hire your own decorator. However, you should let the private birthday party venue manager know in advance as some venues might suggest hiring an on-site decorator for your event. It also depends on whether you’re hiring only a private room or the whole space for the event at the birthday space. In any case, you should contact the event coordinator prior to hiring your decorator.
Prices vary, but the good news is that Chicago has a good range of options, from cheap birthday party venues to upscale ones. Prices per person can range from $16 to $92 and upwards. If you’re thinking about renting a whole venue, budget around $2,000–$7,000+ for the hire fee. (All data according to Tagvenue.)
While you can find many parks all over Chicago that you can rent for your event, if you’re looking to showcase the city, we suggest hosting your birthday in some of its prettiest neighborhoods like Ravenswood, Lakeview, or Logan Square. These private spaces are ideal birthday locations if you’re planning an outdoor event and want to enjoy the lush scenery before or after your celebration.
