Bane of ticket scalpers and fanboy of Beyonce, Chance the Rapper is gearing up for the debut edition of his Magnificent Coloring Day festival, which hits US Cellular Field (not Residential Mortgage Park, or whatever) tomorrow, Sept. 24, at 1 p.m. Today, Chicago's favorite hip-hop native son sweetened the deal: Tickets are now on sale for the festival's official afterparty, featuring the man of the hour himself.

Tickets run $100—or between $1500 and $2000 if you're feeling VIP. It goes down at Studio Paris Nightclub in River North, and tickets can be found here.

But being the consummate multitasker, Chance wasn't done at that: this afternoon he also unveiled a special MCD pop-up shop at the Cell. And now he's showing off a pretty killer Chance-themed emoji. Love it.


Remember, if you struck out on tickets to the festival, you can stream it on Saturday—you just have to jump through those Tidal hoops again if you don't already subscribe.
