Do-Division Street Fest takes over Division St. this weekend, 6/1 – 6/3

This weekend, Chicago’s Division Street will once again be home to the annual Do-Division Street Fest & Sidewalk Sale, now in its sixth year. Kicking off on Friday, the now three day street fest spans 10 city blocks, from Ashland to Leavitt, and will play host to some of the best food, crafts, and music from the surrounding neighborhoods.

With an estimated turnout of 60,000 attendees, Division’s salons, spas, cafes, bakeries, boutiques, and restaurants will be participating in a massive sidewalk sale and Shedd Aquarium-sponsored scavenger hunt.

Throughout the weekend and across two stages, the Do-Division Street Fest will feature live music programmed by Empty Bottle Presents and Subterranean/House Call Entertainment.
