Confidence Man brought pure charisma and controlled chaos to Pride Fest Chicago 2025, transforming Halsted’s closed-off street into an all-out dance party. Performing to a packed crowd at the North Stage on Saturday night, the Aussie electro-pop group delivered a set bursting with synchronized moves, outrageous outfits, and pulsing beats.

Led by the ever-theatrical Janet Planet and Sugar Bones, the duo didn’t just perform—they commanded the celebration. Their tongue-in-cheek confidence, campy choreography, and playful crowd work made their set one of the weekend’s undeniable highlights.

From fan favorites like “Boyfriend (Repeat)” to newer club-heavy tracks off their 2024 album 3AM (LA LA LA), every moment was a joyful, sweaty, glitter-drenched tribute to queerness and unapologetic fun.
