How it started here
August 16, 2026 — Life Bar Arcade
Schaumburg gave us the first ecstatic dance of its kind in the area. Life Bar Arcade opened their floor on a Sunday morning, about fifty of us danced barefoot under the arcade lights, and it showed us the northwest suburbs were ready for this. That pilot has run its course, and Sunday mornings continue in Palatine and Arlington Heights.
