Do Division
The music lineup is the main draw for this Wicker Park festival. Check out the full lineup below, but if you can't stand the sunshine for the whole party, we recommend you not miss Bailiff on Sunday or Archie Powell & The Exports on Saturday.
Do Division kicks off Friday at 5 p.m., then continues on Saturday, June 1 and Sunday, June 2, on Division Street between Damen and Leavitt
Maifest
German beer, German pretzels, German music... Maifest is a 4-day celebration of all things German in Lincoln Square. Grab a big mug of beer and a schnitzel, then don't miss the Polkaholics on Friday night.
Maifest at the intersection of Lincoln and Leland avenues. It starts at 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 30 and Friday, May 31, and it starts at noon on Saturday, June 1 and Sunday, June 2.
Millennium Arts Festival
The fine arts festival in Millennium Park features over 130 artists working in ceramics, fiber, glass, jewelry, sculpture, mixed media, painting, drawing, photography, wood and furniture. So basically any medium you can think of. The party kicks off at 11 a.m. Friday, so stroll over on your lunch break to take in the sights if you can't make it out over the weekend.
