On November 15th, X marked the spot in the Windy City, as ABSOLUT Vodka presented a one-of-a-kind event the likes of which Chicago had never seen before. Part masquerade ball, part art installation, ABSOLUT X brought together an eclectic group of artists for an even more eclectic evening that was all party. Hosted by MC Hollywood Holt at the upscale Aragon Ballrooom, the night featured a live performance from rising indie rock superstars Holy Ghost!, installation pieces by musician/filmmaker/all-around artist extraordinaire Nick Cave, the masterful spinnings of DJ Zebo and Autoerotique, and craft cocktails from famed Chicago mixologist Lynn House.

The celebration went way beyond great music and tasty cocktails. Guests were also treated to a litany of other amazing activities, from creating personalized art with Nick Cave and transforming their look at a customized makeover station to perusing full size prints of classic ABSOLUT ads and immortalizing the event with pics from an on-site photo booth.

Chicago was just the beginning for this one-of-a-kind event series, so be sure to follow ABSOLUT X to see where the X will land next. For more info, be sure to visit www.absolutx.com.
