The summer music fest season hits its stride once again on July 28 and 29 with the arrival of WickerPark Fest – the one and only street festival that annually ranks as one of the best music events of the year. Presented by the WickerPark Bucktown Chamber of Commerce, the 2012 edition of Wicker Park Fest also features a bigger emphasis on art as well as a dedicated children's area.



Over the years, Wicker Park Fest's reputation has grown into epic proportions. What began as a quaint neighborhood shindig nine years ago has blossomed into one of Chicago's most highly-attended street fests, with over 65,000 expected to turn out to this summer's two-day festivity. Some of the hottest local and touring bands highlight a jam-packed weekend – and the admission is only a fraction of most other big music events (a mere $5 donation).



In addition to a stellar live music bill, Wicker Park Fest is a showcase of its diverse neighborhood…historic yet hip, the district offers a variety of lifestyle options, including distinctive art, acclaimed restaurants, family activities and a trendy fashion scene, all represented at the fest.
