Chicago's Michelada Fest has been canceled for 2025—and yes, politics are involved
Thousands of concertgoers have flocked to the city over the last seven years for Michelada Fest, also known as Miche Fest, a lively cultural celebration that began in Pilsen as a street festival and has evolved into a massive multi-day musical showcase full of live music and the titular beer cocktail (also known as the Mexican Bloody Mary). This year, due to growing apprehension around the current state of American politics, the festival has been canceled. In a letter to the community posted on the official festival website, the Miche Fest team said: 'Due to the uncertainty surrounding artist visas and the rapidly changing political climate, we're no longer able to guarantee the full experience we had dreamed up for you with all your favorite artists. Although we tried to push through, it became clear that we wouldn't be able to deliver the full lineup as planned.' Full refunds have been issued to ticketholders—the event was scheduled to take place on July 19 and 20 at Oakwood Beach, with headliners including Grupo Firme, Danny Ocean, Anitta and Luis R. Conriquez set to perform—as well as regrets. "This was not an easy decision for us to make. For seven years, we've poured everything into this festival to create something truly special for our community. Last year was our most incredible celebration yet, and we were ready to make this year even bigger, with more energy, creativity, and corazón,' the organizers' statement continued. "But as independent organizers, we can't afford to take on a big risk with so much uncertainty ahead. The team acknowledged that canceling the festival will greatly impact not only local vendors and small businesses, but also, the artists who were slated to perform and the many community partners that were supporting the two-day festival. 'We're heartbroken by the greater impact this will have on our involved community, with ripple effects reaching our neighborhoods, local economy and the culture we've built together,' organizers said. 'But despite this setback, we remain committed to our values. Michelada Fest will always be a safe place where our community comes together, united by pride and love of our culture and music. That won't ever change. We'll keep showing up, giving back, and uplifting our people in every way we can.'

Miche Fest is canceled for 2025
Michelada Fest, a two-day festival of Latin music planned for July 19-20 at Oakwood Beach, has announced that the festival has been cancelled for 2025. A statement from the Michelada Fest team, posted Tuesday on the festival website and social media, said in part that 'we've made the difficult decision to cancel Michelada Fest 2025,' and attributed the reason to concerns over visas and travel for music artists: 'Due to the uncertainty surrounding artist visas and the rapidly changing political climate, we're no longer able to guarantee the full experience we had dreamed up for you with all your favorite artists. Although we tried to push through, it became clear that we wouldn't be able to deliver the full lineup as planned.' This summer's lineup, announced in early April, included headliners Grupo Firme, Danny Ocean, Anitta, Luis R. Conriquez and a Sunday performance by Netón Vega. Tickets went on sale April 4. Organizers promised prompt refunds for ticket buyers: 'Refunds are our top priority. Full refunds will begin immediately to everyone who purchased tickets through our website or Ticketon. Refunds will go back to the original form of payment. Please allow up to 7-15 business days for processing.' The annual Miche Fest is put on by BIG INDIE, Zamora Live and VivaTuMusica. The first was in Harrison Park in 2019; last summer's event at Oakwood Beach reportedly had a daily attendance of some 10,000 people.
