We've rounded up the best chefs in the city to join us at Time Out Market Chicago, a culinary and cultural destination in the heart of Fulton Market featuring more than 15 kitchens, three bars, one drop-dead gorgeous rooftop terrace and a host of events—all spread across three floors.
September in Chicago started off strong in terms of things to do, and there are no signs of it slowing down. This weekend, the 26th Street Mexican Independence Day Parade returns to Little Village with the theme “Pride and Power: Our Strength, Our Legacy,” celebrating the resilience of the Mexican community. If you're hoping to enjoy the week's balmy temperatures, run for a good cause at the PAWS Chicago 5K or stroll around the Ravenswood ArtWalk. To no surprise, Chicago’s music festival scene is still firing on all cylinders: Sound & Gravity, a new five-day music festival from Pitchfork co-founder Mike Reed, debuts this weekend and Plantasia, a two-day experimental music festival taking over the Garfield Park Conservatory, kicks off on Sunday.
