We've listened to your feedback over the years and decided to do away with tickets for the upcoming fest! Food and drink vendors will accept credit card payments directly at each booth. Cash will also be accepted at select locations. Gate donations can be made via cash or Venmo💫

Square Roots officially kicks off TODAY at 5pm! Start your Friday evening with incredible music performances, craft beers, local food, and awesome vendors! We’ll be dancing in the streets until 10pm and starting again tomorrow! Tag us in your festival fun #SquareRootsChi

TONIGHT! 💥

It's day two and time to get PUMPED for all of the Saturday activities happening at Square Roots! Along with the fabulous live music happening across all four stages, set aside some time for tons of other fun activities. Join us for the party all day on Lincoln Avenue 😎

So, you nearly drank Square Roots out of all the Hopfenlager last night—we, uhhhh, made a lot of it. Good news is, Dovetail Helles and Hef is plenty and found everywhere throughout the fest! Enjoy one in one of beer gardens at the North entrance, Main Stage or Sunnyside

Lincoln Ave was overflowing today with good people, good vibes, and most of all some REALLY good music! The lineup of bands completely blew us away. We’re thrilled to bring so many memorable artists from near and far to Lincoln Square and can’t wait to do it all again tomorrow!

Today is the last day of Square Roots 2024, and YOU could be on the lineup! We're bringing back Live Band Karaoke this evening at Old Town School Maurer Hall! Signups start at 5pm inside the lobby, and performances begin at 6:30pm. Full song list: ots.fm/livebandkaraoke

Running Square Roots wouldn't be possible without our absolutely fabulous group of volunteers! They help with everything from pouring drinks, keeping the area clean, accepting gate donations, and much more—all with a smile on their face 😄 THANK YOU to our festival volunteers!

We're so grateful for the thousands of people who came to dance, drink, sing, and let loose on Lincoln Avenue at Square Roots!! Our attendees, volunteers, performers, and staff create such a spectacular atmosphere at the fest. Thank you to everyone involved in making 2024 a hit!
