by Chicago Bucket List
Summer concert season has arrived in Chicago, and if you haven't checked off "see a live show" from your summer bucket list yet, it's time. If you ask us, there's no better way to make core memories than seeing your favorite musicians perform live. A warm summer evening singing with thousands of other people at the top of your lungs? Pure magic.
Luckily, the Chicago area will host several star-studded acts this summer. From Snoop Dogg to Yellowcard and Alicia Keys to The Offspring, there's a live show for everyone. We made a list of some of the can’t-miss upcoming concerts in the area (with some serious deals on tickets), so you can text the group chat and get ready to make some memories.
