The Chosen Few Picnic & Festival 2025 returns to Chicago’s Jackson Park on Saturday, July 12, for a full day of soulful celebration and house music history. Now in its 35th year, this iconic event—often dubbed the “Woodstock of House Music”—brings together thousands of music lovers from around the world for one unforgettable reunion. With deep roots in Chicago’s rich musical legacy, the festival is helmed by the legendary Chosen Few DJs, including Wayne Williams, Jesse Saunders, Terry Hunter, Alan King, and more, spinning everything from classic deep house to modern remixes.
This year’s lineup features not only the original Chosen Few crew, but also world-renowned guest DJs like David Morales and Danny Krivit, plus live performances from Ann Nesby and The Ladies of Skyy. Whether you’re dancing at the main stage, lounging on picnic blankets with friends, or soaking in the family-friendly atmosphere, the festival offers a truly unique vibe. Attendees can choose from general admission, VIP experiences, or reserved tent spaces to tailor their day. It’s more than just a concert—it’s a celebration of community, culture, and the genre Chicago gave to the world.
Grab your lawn chairs, coolers, and sunscreen, and prepare for a joyful day of music, dancing, and unity by the lakefront. Tickets are on sale now via See Tickets, with VIP and GA packages available.
