The music festival that either put Chicago on the map or vice versa is back for the third straight year and bigger than ever. With Daft Punk, Ben Harper, Muse, Pearl Jam, and Modest Mouse headlining – you already have some solid tunes. Add in 150 more bands, and you have the best music event in Chicago. It will be hot out there, so drink lots of H2O. Keep checking Lumino to see up to the minute coverage.
