Grab your bocce ball and get ready to hit the target, because the city’s first dedicated bocce clubhouse is officially open to the public!
Chicago has been a key bocce city since the early 1900s when Italian immigrants established leagues and community courts throughout the city. The Chicago Bocce Club carries that legacy forward as Chicago’s first permanent, design-driven clubhouse, created by the founders of the American Bocce Company, the organization behind Chicago’s modern bocce revival.
Chicago Bocce Club is opening a massive 15,000-square-foot West Town
Located in the former Bridge 410 event space in West Town, the club taps into Chicago’s century-long bocce lineage and offers a permanent destination to play.
What makes it especially unique are the three indoor courts, hand-laid with Italian materials by the Colleoni family.
The expansive mix of amenities designed for everyday use includes a member’s lounge, dedicated remote working space, private backyard courts, and event space.
Alex Gara, Co-Founder, Chicago Bocce Club said:
“Chicago has played a defining role in American bocce for more than a century, and we wanted to give the city a home that honors that legacy in a fresh, modern way
Chicago Bocce Club is about more than the game, it’s about creating a space where people can connect, compete, and feel part of a community that’s uniquely Chicago.”
