Chicago's Wicker Park will receive a fresh green coat this summer as it plays host to the Green Music Fest, Saturday June 25th through Sunday,
June 26th onDamen Ave. between North and Schiller. The innovative green technology-themed event will reflect the hip and environmentally-conscious West Town community by fusing original live music with green vendors, services and local retail, art, craft and food vendors.
The brainchild of the West Town Chicago Chamber of Commerce, the Green Music Fest is where thousands of people who care for the environment will unite to enjoy high quality music and discover new ways to go "green." There will be local retail, art and craft vendors, plus a green vendor village.
With the support of the City of Chicago Department of Environment's Chicago Center for Green Technology, who is sponsoring the green section of the event, an estimated 60-plus vendors and sponsors will participate in the third annual Green Music Fest. The event will also be produced in the most eco-friendly way possible with bio-diesel fuel operated generators,
biodegradable plastic cups, recycling and composting options, free bike valet, and much more.
