Pearl Jam, Jason Aldean, Kelly Clarkson Hitting Wrigley this Weekend

The two-night event will rock Lake View and Wrigleyville. Here's everything you need to know, from performance times to traffic interruptions.

Huge names in music are ready to rock the house in Lake View this weekend, and that means street closures and parking restrictions to make way for the crowds.

Pearl Jam will kick off at Wrigley Field on Friday at 7:30 p.m., and Jason Aldean will hit the stage with Kelly Clarkson on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. Both performances will conclude around 11 p.m.

Before and after the concert, police may close Addison Street between Racine Avenue and Halsted Street. That’s combined with “hospitality teams,” hired by the Chicago Cubs, patrolling the neighborhood from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. following the concerts.
