Beyond Wonderland makes its way to Chicago this weekend on June 7 + 8 for two days full of music, dancing, and adventures. Here’s what you need to know before you go!
Location
Beyond Wonderland Chicago will take place at Huntington Bank Pavilion on Northerly Island. The address is 1300 S Linn White Drive, Chicago, IL 60605.
All guests must be at least 18 to enter the festival and at least 21 for VIP. A valid Photo ID is required.
Stages
Beyond Wonderland Chicago consists of four main stages: Queen’s Domain, Cheshire Woods, Caterpillar’s Garden, and Mad Hatter’s Castle. Each stage has a unique theme and amazing lineup. The set times dropped, so it’s time to plan the weekend.
Transportation and Parking
There will be limited parking available near the venue, available on a first-come, first-served basis. Using public transit and ridesharing is encouraged due to the high volume of people attending the festival. Northerly Island can be easily accessed using the CTA Red, Green, and Orange Lines, which all stop at Roosevelt Station near Northerly Island. From there, guests have the option of taking a short walk to the festival, hopping on a CTA bus, or ordering a rideshare.
