Newcity Chicago

About Me

Attitude with substance. That's Newcity. We offer up a fresh take on culture and city flavored by a lifelong love of the metropolis we cover. With a combination of in-depth reporting, vivid profiles and sassy commentary on the issues that keep Chicago percolating, Newcity lives as a kind of collective urban diary. And tour guide. When readers climb between our provocative covers, they find a waking dream of film, theater, art and concert reviews, previews and features-as well as the city's most comprehensive and user-friendly arts and entertainment calendar.

But we don't just publish and sit back. We're on the streets ourselves, throwing parties, producing events and connecting our world every way we can, whether it's in the clubs, in the boutiques, or in the bookstores. If you want to plug into Chicago culture, plug into Newcity.
