Other street and music festivals, like Ruido Fest in Union Park and Riot Fest in Douglass Park, are still scheduled to go on this summer, with organizers requiring attendees to show proof of vaccination or a negative test to enter, just like Lollapalooza. I think it’s a reasonable middle ground to have concerts outside, verified vaccination, said Dr. Vishnu Chundi, chair of the Chicago Medical Society COVID-19 Task Force. I think the rules should be the same for everyone as we did for Lollapalooza.
Dr. Chundi doesn t think outdoor street and music festivals will lead to an outbreak of COVID cases.
