We're still recovering.

People in the LGBTQ+ community travel from all over the world to attend the annual Market Days festival right in the heart of Chicago's gayborhood, Northalsted/Lakeview.

Known as the first recognized gay neighborhood in the United States, Northalsted had thousands of visitors hit up every gay bar, circuit party, and steam room you can imagine for Market Days' 42nd year.

The street festival featured local and international talent from around the globe as patrons bar hopped and shopped locally at adorable shops that make up Chicago's vibrant community.

Outside of the festival, many gays could be seen partying all day at Hollywood Beach or on boats across Lake Michigan as they watched the iconic Chicago Air & Water Show throughout the weekend.

Once Friday night rolled around, the electric circuit parties began with Jake Resnicow's legendary M.E.A.T. XXL Party kicking off the festivities with gays dancing all night in cute Speedos and plenty of lit up harnesses.

Resnicow has carved his own lane in the event space for the LGBTQ+ community as the star recently made history for his NYC Pride parties within the past year.

If you've never had the opportunity to attend one of his events, put it in your calendar now. Top of the line production, incredible sounds, huge artists, and so much more. Visit Resnicow's website for the complete schedule.

It also wouldn't be a proper Market Days celebration without the one and only CircuitMOM offering the highest quality circuit parties that anyone could possibly attend.
