WELCOME TO

FEEL THE WAVE SUMMERFEST is a life-changing experience, crammed into just a few days. To be held at Chicago’s beautiful Montrose Beach, the city’s largest and most viable beachfront venue for formatted events. Just four miles north of downtown Chicago and immediately next to the Uptown Entertainment District, Montrose beach supports the large scale infrastructure needed to produce a successful outdoor event. The event will feature a diverse range of bands including many genres of music, including rock, indie, country, hip hop, and electronic dance music but what makes FEEL THE WAVE SUMMERFEST so special is the fact that it could be similarly enjoyed without the musical element. By combining elements such as art installations, sand sculptures, fashion shows and food from local vendors and critically acclaimed chefs throughout the Chicago-land area creates a sun soaked flavor with an upbeat swing and uncontainable energy no matter where you journey. Patrons will enjoy stages that continuously host live music, art and fashion shows offering festival goers an experience next to none. Wavefront serves to educate music and the arts through an upscale and immersive environment.
