Ravinia
The Ravinia Festival will reopen in July for an in-person 2021 summer season, offering its signature mix of classical, popular and chamber music concerts, Ravinia organizers announced.
While the full concert lineup will be announced in late April, organizers confirmed the Chicago Symphony Orchestra will return in July for a six-week summer residency.
Ravinia President and CEO Jeff Haydon noted this summer s Ravinia experience will be a little different than in the past, but our science-based approach to carefully reopening the park puts safeguards in place so that audiences can again enjoy live performances.”
All concerts will take place outside in the open-air pavilion and offer a reduced capacity. Tickets must be reserved in advance, and distanced seating will be used throughout the facility. Organizers noted the number of performers on stage also will be reduced to promote social distancing.
