Roaring City Festival

Join us for Roaring City- Chicago’s newest 2 day neo-vintage music and performance festival! Featuring live bands, DJs, sideshow, circus, burlesque, ambient performance and more!

The Roaring City festival celebrates the future in the spirit of yesteryear- bringing vaudevillian style entertainment from all over the United States for one weekend of awe and delight. You’ll be taken through time in the heart of historical Logan Square within our prohibition era host venue, The Logan Square auditorium (built in 1915).

It’s an old time spectacular event with a futuristic twist. Featuring a huge variety of performance, you’ll be amazed by stage acts, laugh aloud to circus clowns, dance like no-one’s looking to DJs, rock out to electrified swing-style bands, and be enticed for more every step of the way.

In addition to non-stop live entertainment, Roaring City will feature a vendor market curated with the crafts people and artists of Chicago.
