Lincoln Square Summer Concert Series
Intonation or Lollapalooza too big of a production for you? Maybe you’ll like the low-key summer concerts at Giddings Plaza (4731 North Lincoln Avenue) in Lincoln Square. The Chicago Brauhaus serves brats and beer, or you can patronize any of the other restaurants in the area. In the past month I’ve seen a fiddle contest and have been swing dancing out on the plaza.
Here’s a list of the rest of the concerts for the summer (from LincolnSquare.org):
