North Coast Music Festival is celebrating 16 years in 2026!

Chicagoland’s biggest Labor Day Weekend party, happening September 4-6, 2026, returns to the recently renovated campus at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, IL, just 30 minutes outside the city of Chicago. With a stadium, full-field practice dome, and seven full fields with padded turf, attendees can enjoy the comfort of grass without having to deal with the usual muddy floor of a festival.

The size and expansive diversity of the site allows space for six different stages, each with a distinct vibe and top-tier production, for a unique experience and plenty of areas to get away, join the fun, and explore.

This is your festival. This is everyone’s festival. We not only accept differences, we celebrate them. Everyone and anyone despite race, religion, sexual orientation, age, class, style, or musical choice, is welcome. North Coast does not tolerate speech or actions of hate of any kind.

We offer a home of caring, responsible, like-minded people who’s intention is to create long-lasting memories by celebrating life, human differences, and culture.

Over 75 artists. Six stages. Three days. One unforgettable weekend.

WELCOME HOME, COASTIES!
