1. Get covered in clouds of pastel cornmeal powder during the Color Run, a 5K race that begins south of Solider Field and sends participants on a vibrant journey up the Lakefront Trail. The run kicks off at 8am and participants can register for as little as $29.99.

2. Erstwhile Led Zepellin frontman Robert Plant headlines an evening at Millennium Park's Pritzker Pavilion, exploring Celtic melodies, 12-bar blues and folk music with the help of his band, the Sensational Space Shifters. Tickets are $30–$100.

3. The streets of Boystown host Chicago Pride Fest, which celebrates LGBTQ life, culture and community with performances from Mýa and ubiquitous local cover band Sixteen Candles. A $10 donation gets you in on the fun.

For more events, check in with Time Out throughout the day.
