This year North Coast will debut all-new daily showcases curated by industry collectives, showing off the best sounds in hip-hop, house, and beyond. Friday's takeover comes from the venerable AUX CORD DJs, who are bringing the likes of THE COOL KIDS (DJ Set), JOE FRESHGOODS, IRIS TEMPLE (Live Set), and more. Saturday welcomes LYRICAL LEMONADE, who have linked with MADEINTYO, WARHOL.SS, COMETHAZINE, and more to give everyone a proper hip-hop education.

Approaching a decade of successful yearly gatherings, North Coast proudly returns for its ninth year, continuing a tradition of creating new and unique experiences for loyal fans and newcomers alike. Last year, North Coast debuted a brand-new stage, added daily complimentary yoga sessions, a Pop-Up Art Gallery and teamed up with the likes of Ava Grey Designs and The Elder Tree to create a space one part Living Art Gallery, another part homage to the history of Chicago street art.
