Festivals makes it easy to discover celebrations, events, and things to do across 15 major U.S. metro areas.
Choose a city, browse upcoming festivals month by month, see what’s happening today, or explore event locations on an interactive map. Each listing brings the important details together: dates and hours, venue, price, indoor or outdoor setting, family-friendly status, official website, and when the information was last verified.
EXPLORE FESTIVALS ACROSS THE U.S.
Browse Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Denver–Boulder, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, New Orleans, New York, Philadelphia, Portland, the San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle, and Washington, DC. Switch cities at any time, and the festival list and map update to match.
SAVE WHAT SOUNDS GOOD
Keep favorites from every city in one place and set a local reminder for the morning of, one day before, or one week before an event.
FIND THE RIGHT EVENT
Explore cultural celebrations, live music, food festivals, art fairs, street fairs, and seasonal events. Search by festival, city, or category and quickly spot free and family-friendly options.
PLAN THE DAY
Open driving directions in Apple Maps, add an event to Calendar, share it with friends, or visit the festival’s official website.
FOLLOW YOUR FAVORITE CITIES
Turn on optional Festival Alerts and choose one or more cities to hear about newly added festivals and important updates. You can also revisit recently added events in the app.
HELP KEEP LISTINGS CURRENT
Submit a festival for editorial review or report incorrect information directly from the app.
No account is required. Festivals does not request or use your device’s precise location.
This app is great, shows major events happening in Chicago. Very helpful when trying to keep up with all the city has to offer.
Two major problems (as of July 9)
dmittleman
Just installed on my iPad and see two major problems.1. Unlike screen capture shown in App Store, my calendar screen is dark dates on top of a dark background. I literally cannot see any dates in current month other than the differently highlighted current date. There also does not appear to be any settings button allowing me to change this.2. As best I can tell there is only one festival total in the database for the rest of the Summer. If they can’t populate their database with more information, they should not ship. If there are more events, why can’t I see them?
Developer Response
I appreciate the detailed note. I have the app back up and running. If you’re still in Chicago, please check it out and let me know what you think.
Plan Your Chicago Weekend!

This is a great tool we used last year when we were trying to find things to do in Chicago last year. Awesome!
