The future is blindingly bright for Chicago's North Coast Music Festival, which took over the Windy City for a Labor Day Weekend that ravers soon forget.

As the last vestiges of Chi-town's summer began to fade, we were on the ground at this year's event, which brought the highest attendance numbers in the history of the festival. 90,000 attendees dance the days and nights away across three days at SeatGeek Stadium as well as North Coast's full-field practice dome and various fields in-between.

The grounds turned into a sprawling oasis of electronic beats and trippy visuals, an adult playground for the adventurous spirit. And there wasn't a blind spot—practically anywhere you went, bass boomed like the roar of Lake Michigan during a storm.

Seven stages with lasers for days featured performances from Subtronics, Above & Beyond, ILLENIUM, Seven Lions and many more, not to mention b2b sets from the likes of ISOKNOCK (ISOxo and Knock2), LSZEE (LSDDREAM and CloZee), Tchami and Malaa (No Redemption) and Dabin and Said The Sky (Dab The Sky).

Organizers are already planning to level up in 2025 and fans can sign up for the pre-sale waitlist here. In the meantime, check out a list of five things you missed this year below.
