EVE OF THE EVE 2026: CHICAGO'S SINGLES PARTY OF THE YEAR

If you're single in your 50s and 60s in Chicago, this is the night to put on your calendar. HighSight's EVE of the EVE is one of the biggest holiday parties in the city... and one of the most popular nights of the year for singles, even though it isn't officially a singles event.

Everyone dresses up. The Old Post Office fills with music, cocktails, and great conversation, and you get to ring in the New Year one night early with a room full of fun people to meet.

Throwback Dating is proud to be a SuperHost for this evening, and you're invited to join us. Every ticket supports HighSight's scholarship program for under-resourced Chicago high school students, so your night out does some good, too.
