The programming of Vernon Hills Days Summer Bash includes cover groups, local favorites and a headliner that was the singer of the Boston group’s tour range.
“I have more than a feeling that will be a big show,” joked the director of the village Kevin Timony to announce the group’s calendar for the 2025 event.
The village council last week has authorized a contract not to exceed $ 150,000 with the entertainment management group involving musical acts.
Here is the programming described by Timony:
THURSDAY: Hype crew. The group is a “good taste tribute” with fun hip-hop and feast hymns of the 80s, 1990s and the early 2000s. Fireworks will follow the show.
Friday: Starlight City is the act of opening. The group presents a “dazzling mixture” of pop music and dance combined with the powerful energy of a modern rock show, playing the success of Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, Pink, Elton John and others.
Alternative rockers Box is the headliner.
SATURDAY: SorrowWith the music of Heart and Pat Benatar is the opening act.
Heart to Heartbreaker will pay tribute to rock women in the 2025 days of Vernon Hills.
With the kind permission of Heart to Heartbreaker
Saturday to the head is Tommy DecarloWho since 2007 is the main singer or Colead on each range of Boston tour.
Wrap the event on Sunday is Modern RomeosLong a popular group of the Chicago region playing a variety of genres from Motown with classic rock treasures, favorites from the 80s, metal hymns, jewels of the 90s and the best successes of the 2000s played in their own style and infused with comedy.
The village also followed a contract with EMG in 2022 and 2024. The full service contract of 2025 is very similar to last year and only $ 5,000 more, said Timony.
Services include group booking and management of their contracts / riders. EMG also manages production, scene and sound and will organize, provide and pay a 32 -foot covered scene per 24 feet with sound and complete lighting systems.
Vernon Hills Days is a free community event, and the village is trying to plan a varied entertainment program between different genres and generations of music, according to Timony.
“The entertainment budget of $ 150,000 covers four nights of musical acts and we are working closely with EMG to reserve the best available groups, including local, regional and national artists,” he said.
The star group of last year, the Alternative Everclear rock group, was among the biggest evenings in the history of the festival.
What had been known as the summer celebration began in 1992 with Marie Osmond, The Guess Who and Paul Revere & The Raiders like Music Acts. The name changed for Vernon Hills Days in 2022 because this is what most people called him, said Timony.
The four -day festival takes place from July 17 to July 20 in Century Park. Visit VHDAYS.COM For more details.
