There’s no better way to spend a summer evening in Chicago than by listening to some free live music in the park—and starting next month you do just that!
The annual Rosemont Rockin’ in the Park Free Summer Concert Series is back this May with a stacked lineup, including an all-new 4th of July music festival.
Here’s all the deets.
Rockin’ in the Park 2026 lineup
Rockin’ in the Park 2026 will bring three months of live music and festivities to Parkway Bank Park in nearby Rosemont on select Fridays, May 28–September 3.
A special opening night concert will take place on May 24 with a post-show fireworks display.
Each show promises a rockin’ lineup of tribute bands playing hits from iconic artists from the Bee Gees to Journey and more.
Also on the lineup is the inaugural “Rockin’ in the USA” three-day Fourth of July weekend music festival, featuring a full weekend of legendary tribute acts.
The festival will also include fun contests and games, a costume competition, giveaways, and other surprises.
For each edition of the series guests can enjoy free admission, food and beverage vendors, and a bring-your-own food and drinks policy.
