Weekend Events in Chicago May 28-31

Memorial Day weekend always feels like the unofficial kick-off to summer!  This weekend is filled with opportunities to give, remember and celebrate. We’ve got fireworks, parades with marching bands, rock bands, Irish bands, and playtime for pups! 🐾

Farmer’s Markets are in swing and the Logan Square market is hosting Little Peas Kids Club where they’re teaching the littles to pot cherry tomatoes!

Here are the highlight events for this weekend in Chicago.
