Retro on Roscoe is Chicago's ultimate street festival. Retro features Chicago's top talent and entertainment on three main stages. Artisans, antique vendors, and cool merchants will provide a shopping experience that is second to none. Local restaurants fill the venue with summertime samplings and tasty treats.

Retro on Roscoe will feature The Windy City Chili Cook-Off, an Antique Car Show, interactive cooking demonstrations and an unparralled kids area with top-notch talent like Ralph Covert and Justin Roberts.

All this and more liven up this tree lined street for an enjoyable two-day festival that brings back great memories while providing excellent entertainment for the entire family.
Proceeds from Retro on Roscoe benefit Roscoe Village Neighbors. This year, RVN is using Retro income to support our local schools, Audubon and Jahn, complete the streetscape plan and be able to host a variety of community events for our membership.

RVN wishes to thank the 300 volunteers who invest their time and energy each year to make Retro on Roscoe the best festival in the City. To show our appreciation for our volunteers, they are treated to a volunteer pre-party with plenty of food and beverages and all volunteers are guaranteed a free Retro on Roscoe t-shirt. The stylin' Retro on Roscoe t-shirts sold out within hours last year, but the lucky volunteers all received one. This year's t-shirts will have the same popular design!
