Spring Awakening Music Festival is an electronic music festival that has taken place at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois since 2012. The Main Stage of the Festival is located on the heart of the field itself, while the 2 smaller stages surround the outside of the stadium to produce a very loud sound that is heard throughout the atmosphere . It takes place generally in June. In 2015, the festival will be age restricted (18+) for the first time.[1] [2]

History

With a city that is largely known for its culture of House Music Spring Awakening Music Festival was introduced to the city of Chicago in 2012 by the notoriously large promoting agency known as React Presents. With headliners Skrillex and Afrojack the Festival received a very large turn out and has then been continued to present time. Spring Awakening Music Festival has included Dj sets from the ranks of popular Dj's such as Calvin Harris, Tiesto, Datsik Excision, Diplo Dillon Francis, and Hardwell all the way down to up and coming producers such as Bro Safari, Adventure Club, Zeds Dead, and Borgore. Over the years, the Festival has become increasingly popular due to the large fan base of Electronic Dance Music near the Chicago-land area. As people now come from across the globe just to attend the Festival, there are discussed rumors that the Festival could be extending on wards towards many other states. [3]
