The details, in daylight
Alabama Shakes played Ravinia in Highland Park on 21 August 2026, with Liam Kazar in support. This show has already taken place — see Alabama Shakes's page on KeenToGo for their upcoming dates.
A mostly outdoor music venue in Highland Park, Illinois, Ravinia Festival runs a wide-ranging summer season from June to September, spanning classical to pop. The New York Philharmonic played the first concert here in 1905, and it has been the summer home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra since 1936. Set on 36-acre Ravinia Park, with the prairie-style Martin Theatre among its stages, it draws around 400,000 listeners a year. Alabama Shakes are a soul-rock band from Athens, Alabama fronted by Brittany Howard's volcanic voice; Boys & Girls and the Grammy-winning Sound & Color made them one of the great modern live acts.
