Summer is one of the busiest times of year in Chicago with a wide variety of music festivals going on every weekend.

Auris Presents

Auris Presents has established themselves as the dominant force in dance music events in Chicago. As the minds behind ARC Music Festival and exclusive promoters for RADIUS, Concord Music Hall and PRYSM Nightclub, they’ve built their reputation on bringing leading DJs to the city weekend after weekend.

This summer, they’re bringing a brand-new pop art-inspired event to Douglass Park. The debut edition of Heatwave will feature a full lineup of artists and creatives set to immerse attendees into an experience that bridges the gap between experiential art and globally leading dance music performances.

Above & Beyond

Above & Beyond brought their full arsenal to Douglass Park this summer for the debut Heatwave Music Festival Chicago. This pop-art inspired event bridges the gap between experiential art and globally leading dance music performance.

This two-day music and arts fest is a perfect midsummer addition to the Chicago festival scene. Its smaller size and close-together stages made for easy access to all of the action.

This festival was a great success in its first year and will no doubt return next year. It also has some great talent on the lineup, including Above & Beyond, Galantis, RL Grime, Tiesto and Zeds Dead.

Galantis

This summer, Chicago’s premier live event production company Auris Presents will debut a new pop-art inspired immersive dance music festival. This 2-day event will take over Douglass Park on July 16-17, bringing global tastemakers to the city’s West Side.

Featuring some of dance music’s biggest names, the inaugural Heatwave will be a fully immersive, pop-art inspired experience that bridges the gap between experiential art and globally leading dance music performances.

Larger than life house-inspired sounds will be on full display from illustrious Oliver Heldens, Grammy-nominated Audien, South African livetronica duo Goldfish, hitmaker Frank Walker, rising star MADDS, and sultry Counter Records signee Kasbo playing a DJ set. Billing continues with Endless Summer: Sam Feldt B2B Jonas Blue, Matoma, Borgeous and more.

RL Grime

The debut of Heatwave Music Festival Chicago delivered on expectations with headliners like RL Grime, Above & Beyond, and Zeds Dead. The pop-art inspired event bridges the gap between experiential art and globally leading dance music performances.

The lineup consists of three visual arts environments that are all inspired by pop culture, including Andy Warhol and comic books. Attendees will be able to dance the day away while soaking up the atmosphere.

RL Grime is an artist that excels in huge drops and ignorant trap music. He played a powerful 90-minute set that was a highlight of the weekend.

Tiesto

Tiesto brought his signature blend of EDM from the past and present to Heatwave Music Festival Chicago. Trippy visuals and a mix of popular songs like M83’s “Midnight City” pulled attendees to the stage.

Heatwave Music Festival will debut this summer at Douglass Park in Chicago with a fully immersive pop-art experience bridging experiential art and globally leading dance music performances.
