Hit some of the small theatres in town, especially around DePaul. Wherever there's a college campus there's stuff that's fun for under 21.

There are lots of concerts that are 18 and over (and some even permit kids younger) at places like the Metro or the Abbey Pub. There used to be a popular punk venue called the Fireside Bowl but i think they closed that down. Not sure if where the under-21 hip-hop type clubs are, but I'm sure there are some. The places the other people mentioned are in the 'burbs, so unless you have transportation, you probably won't be able to get out there easily if you're staying in Chicago.
other than that, there's a Dave and Buster's restaurant./video arcade, but I believe kids need to be accompanied with an adult if they're under a certain age. There are tons of movie theaters. Hope that helps.

I agree with the first answerer. There is zero gravity and energy. Zero gravity is full of high school students like 16-17, but its kinda good. I went there many times. I'm 19 now. Another good one is Mission in Elgin, IL, its not that far actually from chicago. This one is more mature, you have to be 17-25 to enter, and if you're 21, they have a bar. I would recommend this one. The people there are usually over 18 and there is A LOT of cool people. Enjoy, hope this helps, and maybe i'll see you there ;)

Unfortunately Zero Gravity in Naperville is the only place you can go to dance at a club. There's not going to be a huge choice since mostly everything in Chicago is for folks 21 and over and many places now have raised the age limit on admitting people to places since many 21 year olds can't act right

If you are in chicago, your options are much more limited. A lot of over 18 under 21people I know are really into hooka lounges. You get to avoid the high school people (unless if you are one...) and hang out with an older crowd. Many clubs will occasionally have an under 21 night, but you would have to check websites and what not.

If you're the clubhead...there's always Zero Gravity, Energy, and Club Soda (if your younger)...techno clubs that around the Chicagoland area. Those are some of the more popular ones around my area on the southside at least.

why not see if any of your favorite bands are having a concert while you will be visiting, how about going to a cubs or bulls or blackhawks or sox game in the evening? I think there are alot of shows and plays around too if you search for them. Go to Second City comedy club...its hilarious.
