Event
Welcome to debut of EthelFest, the Chicago-area progressive rock music event! Our goal is to provide an opportunity for progressive rock fans to spend an evening together to bond over the music we love.

EthelFest sprang from similar events held over the past two years, hosted by Uncle Norm and Magog of “Da Midwest Gang” - the informal name of a large, but tight-knit Chicago-area circle of friends who love high-quality live music.  

In the future, we hope EthelFest will grow into something far bigger, but in the meantime, please join us for a wonderful evening of music and friendship!
