Chicago Festivals
Chicago Blues Festival
Each June, about 600,000 people congregate in Chicago’s Grant Park for four days of blues music set on six stages. Past performers have included superstars like Ray Charles, B.B. King and Bonnie Raitt. The Chicago Blues Festival is the world’s largest free blues festival and features the down-home music that is so much a part of Chicago.
Taste of Chicago
Illinois’ premier lakefront festival, the 10-day Taste of Chicago, is attended by more than 3.6 million people. They enjoy food from more than 60 gourmet food vendors and free concerts featuring world-class performances by artists like Peter Frampton, Counting Crows and Melissa Etheridge, who perform at Grant Park’s Petrillo Music Shell. The festival, which ends on Independence Day, includes Independence Eve Fireworks. Bringing kids? There’s a carousel, a Ferris wheel and a Funtime Stage featuring children's entertainment. For adults, there are cooking demonstrations, fashion shows and talent contests.
