Unique and versatile event spaces in Chicago’s West Loop
About the VenueSituated in Chicago’s hot West Loop neighborhood, Moonlight Studios offers highly unique and versatile spaces for special events and production. The facility, a 15,000 square foot repurposed factory, is an industrial chic space consisting of a majestic open studio, three gallery spaces, a production office, as well as pre-function, prep and green room areas. All of the spaces are interconnected and can be configured with endless possibilities. Modern neutral finishes and reclaimed accents that hint back to the building’s past provide a visually interesting yet neutral backdrop for events and shoots.
MOONLIGHT STUDIO
The main open studio space features soaring 24-foot high acoustically treated ceilings, gorgeous chandelier lighting, a traveling I-beam crane system, high-capacity rigging system, catwalks, storage, craft services area and 600 amps of 3 phase power. Moonlight Studio is a unique and versatile space for cocktail receptions, sit down dinners, fashion shows, film shoots, wedding receptions, musical performances, and conferences.
