Fatpour Wicker Park Virtual Walk-Through
Holiday season at Fatpour hits different.
From December through January, our space turns into a full-throttle headquarters for company holiday happy hours, end-of-year celebrations, and group events that actually feel fun. College football bowl games take over the screens. Winter sports run wall to wall. The kitchen stays hot with from-scratch food built for sharing, cheering, and ordering “one more round.”
Fatpour Wicker Park is Chicago’s kind of holiday venue: massive TVs, full game sound, a seasonal holiday beer list that doesn’t phone it in, and food that holds its own even when the game goes sideways. Host your team after a tradeshow, lock in a holiday happy hour that runs straight into bowl season, or plan a winter get-together where the focus stays on great food, good drinks, and whatever game matters that night.
We host everything from semi-private gatherings to full venue buyouts, with space that scales from intimate groups to all-out celebrations. Easy access from the Kennedy, public transit nearby, curling on our year-round outdoor patio, and a neighborhood that knows how to show up make Fatpour Wicker Park an easy win for holiday events with friends and family.
If your idea of a holiday party includes real food, real sports energy, and a room that actually stays alive all night, you’re in the right place.

Common questions related to booking and planning private events
How far in advance can you book an event?
You can book a party with us up to 12 months in advance. We recommend booking an event 4-6 weeks in advance if possible, but can always accommodate last-minute groups.
Can I rent out the entire venue or just a floor or one section?
Yes! Our event planners can guide you through the entire process, block of specific tables or areas, and even book your entertainment, DJ, or team-building activity.
Can we bring in outside food or a cake?
Yes! You can have your cake from a commercial bakery, but we do not allow outside food for private events
I am not quite sure what my per person budget is, should I still reach out to discuss options with an event planner?
Yes! Our event team has worked with just about any budget, and it’s always nice to know what your options are based on your group size or needs.
Can we have the sound on for a game for our group?
Depending on the date and space you book, you may also be able to have dedicated event sound. We suggest asking one of our event planners to know for sure.
How long does the holiday decor set up?
We keep the holiday decor up through at least the end of January, and can leave holiday decor up further into February if requested.
Can you book a Santa Claus for our event?
Yes! Simply include that in your request for proposal using the form links below.
