How to Do Chi Music Fests Right

We are continuing our Summer Entertainment Guide, where every week this month we give you recommendations for how to live your best summertime Chi life. This week, it’s time to pack your water bottle, sunscreen, and glitter because we’re talking all things music festivals. No matter what kind of music you love, there is definitely a festival for it here in Chicago.
