Soho House Chicago hosted a pre-launch fete (opening is set for Monday, August 11th) with Grey Goose for Lollapalooza artists on Saturday, August 2. The party featured a performance by Jon Batiste and Stay Human, along with a DJ set by Kate Nash.

Also in attendance were Perry Farrell, Calvin Harris, Connie Britton, Sophia Bush, Hannah Bronfman, Azeeza Khan, Kate Nash, Jon Batiste, The Temper Tramp, Foster the People, and London Grammar.

Conceived to offer an intimate setting for talent to unwind after the festival, guests gathered on the club floor and expansive rooftop with stunning views of the Chicago skyline. The evening was marked with a live performance by Jon Batiste and Stay Human. Featuring familiar favorites, the crowd was on their feet as the group led an electric performance through the space, on the bar and on the tables. To culminate the evening, Kate Nash took to the tables for a DJ set which lasted into the early morning.

Specialty cocktails by Grey Goose flowed throughout the evening, including the House favourite Eastern Standard, as well as Le Melon Mule and the classic Orange Collins, created exclusively for the party.

Earlier in the day, artists staying in the hotel took the BMW i3 electric cars around town whilst Samsung Galaxy provided guests with their newest mobile devices.
