Summer Smash

The Lyrical Lemonade Summer Smash is the product of two of Chicago’s most well- respected platforms joining forces to create a one-of-a-kind event catering to the city’s budding youth movement. The founding companies, Lyrical Lemonade and SPKRBX Presents, have both found ways to capture the eyes, ears and hearts of millennial culture – that influence was reflected in last years inaugural fest.

Taking place in the beautiful and spacious Douglas Park, the 2018 Summer Smash established itself as the premier festival for hip-hop and young people as a whole. This year, we are nearly quadrupling our reach, expanding the site map and transitioning from a 1 to 2 day format.
