Chris Cagle To Perform At Concert In Antioch

ANTIOCH, IL — Country music star Chris Cagle will open up the 2024 It’s Thursday summer concert series at the downtown Antioch bandshell.

The concert will take place on June 13 at the William E. Brook Entertainment Complex, 900 Skidmore Drive in Antioch. Gates will open at 5 p.m.

Last year, the summer concert series opened with country star Rodney Atikins and drew 5,000 county music fans to downtown Antioch. Village officials are expecting a similar turnout this year, according to a news release from the village.

An opening band will be announced closer to the concert date, according to the news release.

This year's summer concert series will be extended — village officials have added four more weeks to the summer lineup — and the final show of the season will be held on Aug. 29.

“We are excited to continue bringing fun and entertaining music acts to downtown Antioch,” said Antioch Mayor Scott Gartner. “Chris Cagle will be a fun concert for country music fans of all ages. This will be an entertaining evening for residents and visitors, and hopefully a profitable night for our local business community. I love events that showcase our beautiful downtown to visitors from all over the Chicago and Milwaukee areas.”
