Come out and celebrate the Summer Solstice! The Chicago Fire Jam brings together artists and dancers by providing a space for fire performers and drummers to gather and share their creative gifts on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan. Set to the percussive beats of local musicians, this unique theatrical event is truly a marvel to behold.
Fire performances will take place on the lagoon terrace and folks are encouraged to sit around the lagoon to enjoy the show. As always, there will be no alcohol, illegal substances, open flames, fireworks, flash photography, lasers, or drones permitted per Park District laws.
The Arrington Lagoon is located near the Evanston lakefront about 5 blocks east of both the Davis Purple Line stop and the Metra UP-N Evanston Davis St. station. A small amount of paid street parking is located near the lagoon. There is a public parking garage about two blocks away at the Church Street Self Park with entrances from Church St. or Clark St. east of Chicago Avenue.
Drummers and Dancers - we request that you gather in the grassy area Northeast of the Lagoon!
Fire Performers - Any fire performers that have taken FMJ Fire Safety Training since 2021 are welcome to participate (no sign-up necessary). There will be NO fire safety trainings prior to this event, so please plan to attend the Reserve Jam on Saturday, June 15th. Information on signing up for fire safety training courses are available at fullmoonjam.org
As always, this will be a free-to-attend, family-friendly, leave-no-trace, and sober event. We thank everyone in advance for aiding us in cleaning up the parks after the Jam and for helping us leave the world better than when we arrived. We appreciate your support as we continue to improve the accessibility of our event to more communities, and to better share our love of Dancing, Drumming, Fire, and the Moon with all!
