The Concert for Chicago at Millennium Park’s Jay Pritzker Pavilion is scheduled to go on as planned at 6:30 p.m. and will also be broadcast live on WFMT 98.7 FM and wfmt.com.

Attendees should be aware that the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) issued an Air Quality Alert for Chicago on Tuesday in response to smoke from Canadian wildfires impacting the region. It is recommended that all Chicagoans — particularly sensitive populations, including individuals with heart or lung disease, older adults, pregnant people, and young children — avoid outdoor activities and take precautions to protect themselves from exposure. People who choose to attend may want to wear an N95/KN95 mask.

Concert for Chicago is presented with the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events.

Celebrate Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti’s remarkable tenure with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at this free concert in Millennium Park. Enjoy performances of the heartfelt Andante moderato, written by longtime Chicago resident Florence Price, and Tchaikovsky’s exhilarating Fifth Symphony as the CSO closes the 2022/23 Season in style.

Free. No tickets are required.

Please note that this performance will be broadcast live on WFMT 98.7 FM and streamed at wfmt.com and on the WFMT app.
