There is so much to do in a city that is as teeming with cultural happenings as Chicago that it can be very difficult for tourists to come up with a manageable itinerary.

However, the importance of heading out and sampling some of the local night life cannot be overstated.

On December 6th, DJ Itch will be taking to the decks at Metro in Chicago to head up an eclectic night of entertainment.

This is part of the 2012 Chicago Annual of Style - and funk and soul act The O'My's will also be making an appearance.

Entry costs just $50 for general admission. Concessionary rates are available for $30 - and a VIP package can be obtained for $125.

The Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel Chicago could be the perfect place for visitors to the city to book rooms and spend the night, as it is conveniently located a short, 15-minute drive or taxi ride away from the venue.
