Get Festive at the WDCB Jazz Lounge!

It’s a like a festival within a festival! For the fourth straight year, WDCB will again host our very own live music venue at the Chicago Jazz Festival - The WDCB Jazz Lounge! We’ll feature four great Chicago jazz artists each day performing in our tent on the South Promenade in Millennium Park, and it runs from noon to 8pm each day. Stop by for a few minutes and see the musicians up close and personal, or grab a shady spot under the trees and hang out all afternoon. Your favorite WDCB jazz hosts will be on hand to introduce the bands, and the lineup is simply incredible! We’ve got Alyssa Allgood, Dakarai Barclay, Maddie Vogler, Quentin Coaxum, Neal Alger, Denise Thimes, and so many more. See the schedule below.
