Music Festival will also feature stunning stage production, interactive art installations, carnival rides, and much more. More announcements will follow shortly.
The new 2019 location boasts 27 acres of land, nearly double that of last year's site, which allows for bigger and better stages, more production, and additional experiential environments. Complimentary shuttles from nearby Metra stations to the festival grounds will be provided to fest-goers. Additionally, the grounds are less than ten minutes from multiple hotel options, and for the first time in SAMF history, the location will allow for festival parking on site.
React Presents' co-general managers Patrick Grumley and Matt Rucins said, "We are excited to announce that SAMF '19 has relocated to Poplar Creek, a perfect festival location with a rich musical history - adjacent to the Sears Centre Arena, and by the former site of the Poplar Creek
Music Theater. This decision was made with our fans in mind, in order to deliver them the best
Spring Awakening at a site that will offer a superior experience. Thank you for supporting us and we look forward to seeing you at
Spring Awakening 2019!"
