Ring in the Spring With These Upcoming Chicago Shows

Springtime in Chicago means we can finally crawl out of the dark, Netflix naps we’ve been taking since Thanksgiving. With the warm weather comes more fun things to do that were unavailable during the frigid months. In honor of the coming thaw, here’s a list of some must-see concerts coming to Chicago this spring.

March

Cupcakke + Haiku Hands + DJ Taye – Thalia Hall – Thursday, March 21

If you’re not scared away by her explicit lyrics about bodily fluids and genitalia, check out this Chicago native performing on her home turf. It’s sure to be an… empowering experience.

Bad Bunny – Allstate Arena – Sunday, March 24

Kacey Musgraves – Chicago Theatre – Monday, March 25

Mumford and Sons – United Center – Friday, March 29

Maybe it’s not the most complex, but the happy vibes and positive messages of a Mumford and Sons concert could be just the thing for shaking off the winter blues. If you can swing the $130+ ticket price, grab a friend and prepare for a rockin’ stompin’ good time. (too country? Sorry)
