ANIME RAVE

Dive head first into a high-energy, anime-inspired Rave as WAKU WAKU makes its Chicago debut on Saturday, June 20, 2026.

DJs Faith in the Glitch & GreenTeaWasted will be throwing down a steady supply of Anime-adjacent jams. Expect to find yourself dancing to a mix of kawaii bass, nightcore, synthwave, future funk, chiptune, EDM remixes & more.

Cosplay Highly Encouraged!!!

Cosplayers, anime fans, and nightlifers alike, join us in a space where expressive outfits, character-inspired looks, and shared fandom take center stage, whether you’re serving main-character energy, chaotic sidekick vibes, or something entirely your own.

This is a party for fans of anime themes, cosplay, and artists such as Pegboard Nerds, TeddyLoid, Bemax, Moe Shop, Caramella Girls, Kensuke Ushio, S3RL, Needy Girl Overdose, Geoxor, Ghost Data, Steradlye, and many more.
