The 2023 ARC Music Festival Lineup Gets A Boost With Phase 2 Additions

ARC Music Festival in Chicago has announced over 20 artists for its 2023 phase 2 lineup.

Taking place from September 1-3, at Union Park, the house and techno festival, hosted in the birthplace of house music, has added the likes of  Dax J, Cassy, Shimza, Sara Landry, Kevin Knapp, Iglesias, and a live set by David Castellani to the roster.

Additionally, local Chicago favorites Terry Hunter, Mike Dunn, and legendary group Phuture are now on the bill as well. The lineup is rounded out by rising acts Eskuche, Tara Brooks, and regional support acts.

The new artists come after an already star-studded cast of talent was set to bring the house and techno heat to ARC. Headliners include returning favorites Eric Prydz, Adam Beyer, Tale Of Us, and John Summit.

Chicago icons such as Derrick Carter, Gene Farris, and Collette will also be performing alongside techno legends Carl Craig and Moodymann. Other notable names on the bill include Black Coffee, Peggy Gou, Fisher, and more. 

ARC’s curated production elements and art will guide house and techno fans on an immersive journey through four stages, including the outrageous Elrow stage takeover.

With decades of event experience and curation, the Auris Presents team will lead these efforts and offer intimate afterparties at various partner venues as well. More info on that coming soon.
