Every show listed here is a dated event in our catalog with a named venue in Chicago, checked against the organizer's own website rather than against another directory. All of them carries the date we last confirmed it, shown on each show's own page. Cancelled shows are left off this page entirely — it answers what is on, and a cancelled show is not on.

The page rebuilds every night, so "this week" means the week printed above and nothing else. Shows already in progress are listed first, because a show that opened on Monday and runs to Friday is usually the thing you are actually looking for.

We publish dates, venues and organizers. We don't publish ticket prices or booth rates — those change by tier and deadline, and belong on the organizer's site, which we link from every show page. If something here is wrong, the correction link on that show's page reaches our editors directly.
