Concert Tickets Tucked Away In These Suburban Vinyl Shops For Record Store Day

NAPERVILLE, IL — This Record Store Day, Naper Settlement and five area record stores have a special incentive up their metaphorical sleeves. To honor the 2025 veneration of vinyl, giveaway records redeemable for tickets to the Naper Nights concert series will be tucked away throughout participating stores.

Below is a list of the record stores where customers might find Naper Nights tickets on Saturday:

• Crooked Arm Vinyl & Tap, 6450 College Rd., Lisle
• Kiss the Sky, 180 1st St., Batavia
• Left 'Round Records, 24041 Lockport St., Plainfield
• Paul Rose Records & Boutique, 16030 S. Lincoln Hwy., Plainfield
• Purple Dog Records, 231 S. Washington St., Naperville

Shoppers should be on the lookout for special "giveaway records" that can be brought to the store's register and exchanged for two tickets to Naper Nights. The special records can be found near albums inspired by the lineup of artists for this year's Naper Nights Concert Series.

This year, Naper Nights is teasing an "all-new lineup," along with "an exciting, nationally recognized band with several beloved hits from the 1970s," a news release said. The popular concert series will kick off in June.

Record Store Day will also mark the official announcement of the 2025 Naper Nights lineup, which is set to drop at 5 p.m. April 12.
