Chicago is filled with annual traditions, like street festivals, parades, conventions, and other offerings that make the city great! Sometimes additional causes for celebration emerge even more sporadically, like when a Chicago sports team wins a championship or when a local politician becomes the President of the United States. This "Chicago Special Events" series gives a live-streamed Heygo experience for these wonderful festivities as they are happening.

ACTIVATE is a pop-up street festival, but it takes place behind buildings in the alleys. It is filled with art, music, performers, and other engaging attractions. The festivity themes change each time this is offered, and the organizers have said that you can expect programming LGBTQ-related for this Pride Month event. While we're there, I'll also point out interesting perspectives of the surrounding architecture you typically do not get at street level. This is the only time ACTIVATE is scheduled in 2022, so I hope you can join!

There’s no registration cost, but tips are appreciated. All you have to do is register in advance here, and then watch the live-streamed tour from any web browser.
