Windy City Smokeout is what summer in Chicago is all about: four days of country music, award-winning BBQ, cold drinks, and an unforgettable atmosphere just outside of the United Center. From July 10–13, 2025, the city comes alive for this one-of-a-kind celebration. 

Grab Thursday or Friday wristbands and beat the weekend rush—while catching stars like Old Dominion, Bailey Zimmerman, Dylan Gossett, and Koe Wetzel live. Whether you're coming for the music, the bites, or just to soak up the scene, you'll be glad you made this your Chicago weekend.
