Say so long to the 2025 hollywoodbowl summer season by enjoying a weekend of rock and roll nostalgia paired with a heavy helping of spectacular pyrotechnics. This September 12-14 at the Bowl, catch Grammy Hall of Fame and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees Chicago as they lead back-to-back-back nights of classic hits, capped nightly with a show-stopping fireworks finale.

Since forming in 1967 in—where else?—the city of Chicago, the band Chicago have recorded 40 albums, sold over 100 million records, and have proven themselves to be one of the longest-running and best-selling groups of all time. They’ll send our season off in a festive farewell, performing horn-laden rock hits and heart-aching ballads like “25 or 6 to 4,” “Colour My World,” and “Saturday in the Park” while the Bowl fireworks show provides “dancing lights against the sky,” as the band themselves sang. It’s the best way in the city to bid farewell to summer! Tickets via link in bio. 2025-09-05 22:37:45 S.. 23 -97% 6 -55%
