Windy City Smokeout 2022: Full Music Lineup and Single Day Ticket Information AnnouncedBrian Lendinoon January 25, 2022 at 11:55 pm

Every single year Windy City Smokeout is the talk of the summer. It’s arguably the city’s most popular music festival. Even for folks, like this writer, who do not care much for country music it’s a good time. It’s the perfect marriage of food, beer, energy, and, yes, music. All things considered it is decidedly better than any other music festival downtown. The Windy City Smokeout 2022 lineup, dates and ticket information was released this week so let’s dive in and see who will be in attendance and how you can get tickets to check them out.

When

Thursday, August 4th – Sunday, August 7th

8/4 — Gates Open at 1PM
8/5 — Gates Open at 2PM
8/6 — Gates Open at 1PM

Where

Hosted by popular barbecue joint, Bub City, and ACM award-winning Joe’s Bar, Windy City Smokeout will be returning to the iconic United Center parking lot. The arena’s north parking lot is transformed into the world’s coolest outdoor cafeteria on one end and a perfect open air music studio on the other.

United Center Address: 1901 W Madison St, Chicago, IL 60612

The Lineup

Thursday, August 4 (gates at 1pm): Morgan Wade, Zach Bryan, Turnpike Troubadours, Willie Nelson & Family

I will never claim to be a country music aficionado but I’ll be damned if I didn’t say it’s pretty cool that Willie Nelson will be there. The stage isn’t the only thing that’ll be lit up that night.
