Labor Day can sometimes feel like a bittersweet holiday, marking the unofficial end of summer in Chicago and all its myriad pleasures. Thankfully, there’s still plenty of warm weather fun to be had as we roll into the three-day weekend, from street festivals (like West Loop Art Fest) to live music at the Chicago Jazz Festival downtown and North Coast in suburban Bridgeview. It’s also the final weekend to catch free fireworks shows at Navy Pier and soak up the sun on public beaches. Scroll through for even more stuff to do and have a very happy Labor Day.
