Welcome to a Chicago tradition

Ravinia® is an internationally renowned, not-for-profit music festival, that presents outstanding performances by the world’s greatest artists. The enchanting 36-acre park boasts three venues and the popular Lawn where picnicking is an art. Ravinia supports classical music with its annual summer residency of the world-acclaimed Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Steans Music Institute for young professional musicians, and its Reach Teach Play music education programs.

Every season brings something new

Every Ravinia season is unforgettable and packed full of memorable musical moments. If you have never visited the park before, you can get to know Ravinia through highlights of June 2023 and July 2023.
