Pitchfork Festival to Relocate in 2025

Beloved Summer Event Moving to a New City

After a decade of being held in Chicago's Union Park, the Pitchfork Music Festival will be moving to a new city in 2025. The festival's organizers have not yet announced the new location, but they have said that they are looking for a city that is "vibrant, diverse, and has a strong musical community."

Reasons for the Move

The move comes as the festival has outgrown its current location. Union Park is a popular destination for Chicagoans and tourists alike, and the festival has often had to compete with other events for space. The new location will give the festival more room to grow and will allow it to offer a wider variety of programming.

The Pitchfork Music Festival is one of the most popular music festivals in the world. It features a diverse lineup of artists from a wide range of genres. The festival is also known for its commitment to sustainability and its support of local businesses.

Impact on Chicago

The move of the Pitchfork Music Festival will have a significant impact on Chicago. The festival is a major economic driver for the city, and it also helps to promote Chicago's music scene.

The city of Chicago is working to find a new event to replace the Pitchfork Music Festival. Mayor Lori Lightfoot has said that she is committed to keeping Chicago a vibrant music destination.
