Val Haller, co-founder of Winnetka Music Festival, reflects on the milestone, “I never imagined that what began as intimate house concerts in our living room thirteen years ago, would grow into such a revered community festival. When we launched the Winnetka Music Festival in 2017, our goal was simple: showcase top emerging artists and bring ‘downtown quality’ music to the suburbs — and ten years later, that same mission drives everything we do.

We’re fiercely proud to be an artist-first, sustainable festival where musicians are truly cared for and audiences enjoy a carefully curated music experience in a comfortable setting. Our authentic and consistent approach attracts a discerning audience that comes back every year from all over the country. Our partnership with SPACE over the past four years has helped elevate the festival’s reach and visibility.” Festival co-founder Scott Myers adds, “It’s been an amazing decade of music, and we continue to be proud to showcase the charm and energy of our village to music fans from all over.”

The festival unfolds in the streets of downtown Winnetka across four stages, including an intimate indoor stage at the Winnetka Chapel. In addition to live music, the festival has a children’s area and an array of local food and beverage offerings.
