We all know Chicago has its perks, but it also has its faults. It can be noisy, messy, and chaotic—between constant car horns blasting, bumper-to-bumper traffic, the bitter cold, and the Bears sucking, there are many reasons to be agitated if you’re a Chicagoan. And we can all use stress relief. While some things like escape rooms get the mind flowing, we sometimes need to smash, crash, and utterly wreck something to release the stress. So, we’ve found our favorite Chicago rage rooms for you to get down and begin destroying.
1. Kanya Lounge
While almost all the rage rooms in Chicago are, in fact, not in Chicago. Why would we have other places that are further away? It’s because there is only one. The one rage room in Chicago is the Kanya Lounge. The exclusive two-story adult playground has three unique custom-made range rooms—the perfect extreme activity.
The 11,000-square-foot space offers visitors (ragers) the opportunity to go wild. The Kanya Lounge package offers 20 minutes of destruction. You’ll receive one premium item (monitor, printer, etc.), one small item (phone, keyboard, music system, DVD player, VCR, etc.), and a mix of five standard items (plates, glass bottles, cups, etc.).
Address: 2525 N Elston Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
2. BullsEye Axe Lounge X Rage Room
At BullsEye Axe Lounge, there is Raging Bull—and not the Six Flag rollercoaster ride. However, you might get the same thrill. This is one of the rage rooms in Chicago where you can unleash your inner rage in a safe and secure environment, of course.
You can start at the minimum package, which includes one premium item ( monitor, printer, etc.), one small item (phone, keyboard, music system, DVD player, VCR, etc.), and a mix of three surprise items (plates, glass bottles, cups, etc.). From there, the packages get bigger, with more things for you to smash!

3. Epiphany and Co: Anger Management Edition
All their packages are full-on stress reducers at Epiphany and Co: Anger Management Edition. You’ll get to let out all your rage while having a complete adrenaline rush. It’s the ultimate feel-good experience, especially if you bring your friends to join in. It remains one of the most unique things to do in Chicago.
Address: 80 W 79th Ave, Merrillville, IN 46410
4. Axe Zone Lounge
Wreck Zone is a brand new rage room experience at Axe Zone Lounge that will allow you to vent some built-up or new profound anger. You’ll be able to choose from two experiences: rookie and warrior mode. With Rookie Mode, you’ll have 15 small items (beer, soda, bottles, plates, etc.), three medium items (keyboard, Blu-ray player, VCR, phone, monitor, etc.), and one large email (TV, printer, etc.).
Warrior mode allows you to go (smash) a bit bigger—22 small items, five medium items, and two large items. So, if you’re feeling a bit more destructive, we definitely recommend this one.
