North Coast 2025 was everything I love about festivals: incredible music, creative stage setups, good vibes, and a community that looks out for each other…This year solidified it for me.

NCMF is still at the top of Chicago fests. From the local food, the art, to the music, they never fall short. North Coast pulled out all the stops.

In describing the return of NCMF, out of this world seems to be the prevailing ideology. and the correct one.

With it’s diverse lineup and variety of afterparties right outside the beautiful city of Chicago on Labor Day Weekend, NCMF is sure to be an awesome experience every year.

NCMF dominates their annual celebration… was nothing short of breathtaking.

North Coast was full of unique surprises. and this festival veteran enjoyed every minute of it.

15 years strong and only getting bigger, Chicago’s beloved North Coast Music Festival…reads like an electronic music lover’s dream journal.
