The A.V. Club (the arts-and-entertainment wing of The Onion, America’s Finest News Source) and the Hideout Chicago (Chicago’s finest source for live music) have combined forces to present one terrific festival this year just outside the Hideout, at 1354 W. Wabansia St.

Two-day passes are on-sale now with limited early-bird passes priced at $50 plus fees; when those are gone, two-day passes will increase to $60 & $70 plus fees.

A portion of every ticket sold will benefit a variety of Chicago charities, including Rock For Kids. 

The Hideout Chicago celebrated its 16th Block Party last year with a sold-out show featuring headliners Wilco and Iron & Wine.

The Hideout Chicago Block Party has always prided itself on being a low-stress, family-friendly festival, and that tradition will continue this year. Food and drink will of course be available, along with a kids area, a bike valet, and much more.
