When did Chicago become the new Nashville? 2013, if you want to be precise. That’s how long the Windy City Smokeout has brought your favorite country music megastars to Illinois, and we love them for it! We can’t decide which Bryan, Zach or Luke, we’re the most excited to see, and it’s a great problem to have. Add in more honky tonk heroes like Bailey Zimmerman, Chris Lane, Dylan Scott, and more, and you know you’re going to have the best time kicking up your heels in the Windy City.

And it doesn’t hurt that you can indulge in a delicious steak or rack of ribs while you listen to Luke Bryan’s greatest hits.
