Looptopia, America's first dusk-til-dawn cultural and artistic celebration, is inspired by similar "White Night" events in Paris, Rome, Montreal and Brussels and features some 15 hours of dynamic programming, 300 artists, and 100 of Chicago's premier cultural venues. Showcased are some of the best and most dynamic of Chicago's artistic and cultural communities performing in areas as diverse and unique as street corners, alleyways, and loading docks. Come and witness the stunning transformation of Chicago's Loop into a sensory playground of music, visual art, performance, and dance on a scale that must be seen to be believed.
