Overview:
Chicago’s Pride Music Festival, (formerly Pride in the Park), is undergoing some expansion and change in 2024. It’s new name calls it what it is- a music festival celebrating Chicago’s huge and tightly knit LGBTQ community. It retains its distinction of being the first (and to date- the only ) LGBTQ festival to be held in downtown Chicago- in Chicago’s gorgeous Grant Park.
This monumental, history-making Pride celebration features a lineup of music acts that are at the very top of the A-List. Continuous live music capped by major, national name, top-of-the A-List headliners keeps a jubilant crowd engaged from the moment the gates open until the last closing minutes.
Chicago’s Pride Music Festival also features a wide variety of food and themed merchandise vendors, cocktail, beer and wine booths and an elaborate VIP area.
The event is ticketed.
We will announce our charity partner by early February.
