Thank You

And that's a wrap. The Grant Park Music Festival's 2025 season was an epic one for the books, with 200 free live concerts and educational events that served more than 350,000 Chicagoans and visitors over a ten-week period, featuring the Grant Park Orchestra and Chorus in Millennium Park and in neighborhoods throughout the city.

Thank you to all who made it happen.
