Aragon Ballroom Concert Archive

1106 Lawrence Ave., Chicago, IL

The Aragon Ballroom was built in 1926 was originally a famous dance ballroom that used to broadcast the orchestra music on radio. Many of the top big bands played at the Aragon. In the early 60’s ice skating and boxing matches were held at the Aragon. In 1966 the Aragon became the Cheetah Club and began holding pop concerts as a disco. In June of 1968 the club returned to its original name of the Aragon and held rock, pop and Latin concerts until October 1970. Concerts were stopped at the Aragon due to security and drug problems. Rock and pop concerts began again in 1972. Here is a concert archive that is meant to supplement the concert log at the Aragon website at www.aragon.com
