It was officially 'brat summer' in Chicago!

Yes, the fall season is finally upon us, but nothing is sweeter than an end-of-summer celebration to rejoice in all that is gay AF! In other words, everything that Sidetrack Chicago Market Days embodies!

This year Chicago really proved to be the place to be, from the incredible performances at Lollapalooza to our future president Kamala Harris accepting the nomination at the Democratic National Convention to this year's Northalsted Market Days where the gays came out to play!

Tens of thousands of hotties headed to Northalsted to celebrate summer — it didn't hurt that the weather was beyond perfect for everyone to rock out their best sexy, revealing, and kinky fits! Who's complaining about that? Not us!

This year's theme was, no surprise, “brat summer” and featured photo-ops, a Chicago Drag Showcase, a Scruff Dance Party, and cocktailing on the Rooftop.

We're warning you now, that when you see how much fun this event was the FOMO will be FIERCE, but don't worry you'll get your chance to join in the festivities! Chicago for Market Days 2025 is set to return August 9-10, 2025! So start making plans to attend now, and check out this year's festivities below!
