FEATURED | Dunn Dunn Fest

3 Nights. 6 Venues. Celebrating American Music

February 18th, 19th 20th #SupportLocalMusic

"The bands playing Dunn Dunn Fest are bands that work tirelessly throughout the year to “make it,” and these bands will make it. This is your opportunity to escape the Chicago winter for 3 nights and spend $40 or less on 6 bands of your choice. All tickets vary from $10 – $18. Every lineup is bringing a high-energy party and celebration to our city. I  want you to be there to welcome the bands with your voice, your energy and your ability to acknowledge when it is appropriate to let go the stress of life, relax, and just party."  -Donnie Biggins
