North Coast Music Festival Makes Its Return
After attracting 48,000 music fans during its inaugural year, Chicago's North Coast Music Festival is back for its second year. The festival, which showcases mostly electronica artists, MCs and jam bands, will be held in Union Park again over Labor Day weekend (Sept. 2, 3 and 4). Union Park, also home to Chicago's beloved Pitchfork Music Festival, is located in the West Loop area at the corners of Lake St. and Ashland Ave. Last year's festival bill included acts like The Chemical Brothers, Umphrey's McGee, Pretty Lights and Lupe Fiasco.
Tickets for this year's fest go on sale April 16. Expect to see initial line-up announcements that day as well. Tickets will begin at $40 for single-day passes and $95 for three days. Check the festival's website on the 16th for more details on how to purchase tickets.
