A new concert venue has opened in Illinois and it will blow your mind.

Rich History Of Concert Venues In Chicago

When it comes to live shows, Chicago is a favorite for both artists and fans. There have been many epic shows from all of the biggest bands at legendary concert venues. I'm talking about places like the Aragon Ballroom, House of Blues, and Grant Park to just name a couple. If you're going to open a new one, you better bring it because there's a lot of competition.

New Concert Venue Opens In Chicago

This summer was the debut of a brand new concert venue in Chicago. It's called The Salt Shed. It opened at a former Morton Salt Warehouse Facility in Chicago. Residents have been hoping that it would become something else after the complex shut down. The rumors of a new location for live shows started a couple of years ago. The dream finally became a reality.


According to saltshedchicago.com, 

The Salt Shed, Chicago's new performance and community space, is set to open at the historic Morton Salt complex.

 

The complex will feature an outdoor space opening this summer, and a state-of-the-art indoor venue opening in 2023.


Here's the really cool part that makes this venue one-of-a-kind. It will host both indoor and outdoor shows. That gives it a huge advantage in the city. It immediately becomes an all-year-round live music option. Plus, because of the location, the whole set-up is unique and special.

I can't wait to check out a show there. For more info, HERE.
