While there isn&#8217;t an admission fee, a $10 donation is strongly suggested and appreciated to help contribute to this amazing neighborhood and all of its annual activities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What to Wear<\/h2>\n<p>August is typically Chicago&#8217;s hottest month, so be prepared for heat throughout the weekend. Loose clothing and sleeveless summer attire is always best, but don&#8217;t be afraid to have fun with your wardrobe too! This event is all about celebrating the past, so bust out your favorite vintage or retro chic items to go along with the theme.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What to Do<\/h2>\n<p>This festival is packed from corner to corner with endless fun. Aside from nonstop music and tasty summer food and drinks, Retro on Roscoe is also known for its antique car show that displays over 50 automobiles. The kids&#8217; area on Roscoe and Hoyne is every child&#8217;s paradise, with inflatables, crafts, balloon artists, face painting, and more.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Where to Stay<\/h2>\n<p>Roscoe Village isn&#8217;t exactly the biggest neighborhood in the city, so lodging options are somewhat limited.
