With yesterday seeing summer-like weather across Chicago despite it being the end of February, you’d be forgiven for letting summer plans slip into your mind as if it were arriving next week.
Though the dramatic turn in weather over the last 24 hours has brought us right back into winter climates, July and August events have begun announcing themselves as we transition from winter into spring.
Chicago is more alive than ever in July and August with an array of euphoric experiences and enjoyable activities that are ever-evolving and expanding.
One burgeoning summer bucket list experience in Chicago the city’s Latino festival Miche Fest and this year it has announced an exciting new location.
Having previously been located in Pilsen’s Harrison Park in June, this year Miche Fest is moving across Chicago and headed to Oakwood Beach to offer music, culture, food, and activities on the banks of Lake Michigan.
Taking place on Saturday, July 13th, and Sunday, July 14th, Miche Fest promises “an exciting new location, bigger activations, and more artists you love” for its 6th year in Chicago.
“What started as an idea to blend together música latina, cultura, y unas sabrosas micheladas has pushed the boundaries of what’s possible” read the Miche Fest announcement. “Chicago’s Latino Festival is back, and this time, it’s bigger, bolder y más chingón than ever before.”
Last year’s performers included the likes of Gerardo Ortiz, Natti Natasha, Prince Royce, and Elvis Crespo.
This year’s lineup hasn’t yet been released but Miche Fest announced that it will be revealed “in a few weeks.”
Presale tickets go live this coming Friday (March 1st, 2024) at midday CST.
