Previously an old steel factory, Radius has been transformed into a modern artistic space focused on and elevated music experience. Located in the Pilsen neighborhood, which was recently ranked as one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world by Time Out, is known for its eclectic and brilliant murals. Radius will feature those from the likes of Lefty Out There, Thank You X, and NYCHOS.
The mastermind behind this new music powerhouse has been involved in live music and events in Chicago for the past 20 years. Nick Karounos has been the owner and operator of Concord Music Hall, the MID, and PRYSM Nightclub and saw the opportunity for a large scale venue closer to the downtown area.
Within Radius is Cermak Hall, a 10,000 square foot multi-purpose event space featuring its own entrance, a full bar, and an additional stage. Cermak Hall will be used as a pre and post-event space with food and drink options allowing guests to enhance their experience. The space will also cater to numerous amounts of programming including weddings, conventions, corporate/private events and more.
Radius is located in Chicago’s East Pilsen neighborhood just south of The Loop bordering Chinatown with easy access off I-90/94. There will be a rideshare friendly pick up zone and a variety of parking options. Radius is easily accessible via various forms of public transportation, including the Halsted 8 Bus, Cermak 21 Bus, Orange/Red/Green lines.
