Chicago Drive-In has announced that a punk fest featuring Pegboy, Local H, Jake Burns of Stiff Little Fingers and The Bollweevils will be taking over SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview on Oct. 17. The event celebrates the 30th anniversary of Pegboy, one of the most influential bands in the midwestern punk scene.
Doors will open at 5 p.m and tickets are currently available. Cars will be parked with a minimum of 12′ between vehicles and a number of other coronavirus safety measures are in place to keep staff and attendees safe.
Louie Mendicino, Chicago Drive-In partner, commented in a statement, “This is a project founded by members of Chicago’s career festival and large scale event producers and organizers. We take tremendous pride in bringing Chicagoland’s foremost events to life in all avenues of cultural experience. That pride and love for our work is the reason we chose to pivot in the direction of this new project. As long as an avenue for entertainment exists, we aim to deliver that opportunity to the people that love coming to our events as much as we love creating them. We would like to express our sincere gratitude for future support of this new endeavor, as we cannot wait to once again bring people together for a shared, safe entertainment experience.”
Family friendly movies and virtual concerts have also been a great success at Chicago Drive-In’s locations.
