El Grito Chicago

Mark your calendars, mi gente—El Grito Chicago is back! We’re bringing all the orgullo Mexicano to Grant Park for a full weekend of culture, flavor, and música from Saturday, September 13th to Sunday, September 14th. Think a taco in one hand, michelada in the other while the banda plays loud and proud with the Chicago skyline in the background. Bring your friends, bring the kids, a la abuela—and get ready to dance, eat, and feel that true Mexican spirit right in the heart of Chicago.
