Castaways is synonymous with summertime in Chicago, and this year, its partnering with ARC to bring you the biggest party on the beach: ARC AT THE LAKE. This music festival is stacked with the hottest DJs, and there's no better place to post up than a private cabana with VIP service.

Each cabana can accommodate up to 15 people. Cabanas have a $1,500 bottle minimum prior to tax and gratuity. If the minimum is not met, we will charge the card for the remaining amount. Checks can only be split in half evenly.

Please note your group needs to have tickets for the event prior to booking the cabana, and you will not be let into the venue without a ticket. Tickets can be purchased through ARC here: arcmusicfestival.com/arc-at-the-lake. Doors open at 4pm.

There is no parking at the restaurant. However, there is a public parking lot adjacent to Castaways and an additional parking lot at North Ave and Stockton. While we are a kid-friendly venue, the North End Beach club, which includes our cabanas, is 21 and up. Beverages that are not listed on the bottle service menu must be ordered individually from the bar, and it does not go towards the cabana minimum. Payment is due at the restaurant.
