More than a decade after its closing, a thousand former patrons from every generation of Neo will return to Chicago’s Metro, 3730 N. Clark St., on Saturday, July 11th 8PM. 21+ The Neo reunion is a celebration of an institution that remains one of Chicago’s most beloved incubators and refuges for groundbreaking music genres such as punk, new wave, industrial, goth, and more. Official Neo Reunion merch will be available, along with jewelry handmade by Heather Spear that contains pieces of the bar, the Neo dance floor, and the mirror ball. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Darkest Before Dawn, a nonprofit organization providing mental and emotional support resources for entertainment and hospitality industry workers.
