This Weekend in Bucktown / Wicker Park and Chicago at large.

This weekend is going to bring the first real heatwave here to our neighborhood, so before you head out make sure you know where our neighborhood cooling stations are: Cooling Station Locations.

General Weekend Goods: 

Check out Estereo - Logan Square's newest hip bar by the same group resposible for the last hip bar - general first look rundown can be found at DNA info. It's a bit of a walk from Ray's, but doable, just bring a lot of water, we have a heat wave upon us.

Friday 7/22

Taste of River North: This runs through the weekend and is in most ways a classic Chicago street fest with cover bands, food vendors, and porta potties.

Grant Park Music Festival: The New world Symphony is in residence at the festival both Friday and Saturday night.

Saturday 7/23

Wicker Park Fest: Often voted the best street festival of the summer Wicker Park fest sets up only a mile from Ray's Bucktown Bed and Breakfast for Saturday and Sunday. They have a kids fest, arts, vendors, music, and plenty of "culture" - whatever they mean by that. definitely worth a visit, especially if 

Sunday 7/24
