Every collegiette is in need of a fun, relaxed night out with their girlfriends. Our schedules can be so hectic that sometimes we just need a night where we can get our minds of off work, classes, and boy drama. Luckily for us, we live in a city with endless discoveries and getaway spots. If you’re looking for a night to mix things up with your girlies and try something new and fun together, here are some fabulous activities and events that will make for a great girls night out.   

Sassy City Chicks

Looking for an event with spa treatments, cocktail samplings, shopping show specials, and giveaways? Sassy City Chicks events are an absolute must! Their mission is to create social and empowering shopping experiences for women 21+. Their events are perfect for a girl’s night out offering a sophisticated experience through fashion, beauty, and style.

Flirty Girl Fitness

One of the best fitness and lifestyle hot spots in Chicago is Flirty Girl Fitness! Their exercises are definitely unique and fun! It might be a tad different from your usual workout routine, but give it a try with some of your close girls! They have a great selection of classes such as abs & booty, hottie body boxing, cardio dance, and video vixen. It’s a higher end, social club for women that not only offers fitness classes, but also girl’s night out parties and other social events. There are several locations in Chicago so it’s a definite must try experience.

Chicks Night Fun Run

Fleet Feet Sports created this great opportunity for women to get together and inspire each other to stay active and workout. At 6:30pm every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday Fleet Feet offers a girls night fun run where each person can keep track of their progress and even earn great gear along the way! Items earned with a certain number of miles reached include a short or long sleeve chick’s night technical shirt, a night jacket, or even a $50 Fleet Feet Sports gift certificate. You even get a bonus if you bring a friend along! With locations in Old Town, Lincoln Square, and South Loop, this is a great opportunity for a girl’s night out having fun and being active.
