Spring Awakening Music Festival (SAMF) was an annual electronic dance music (EDM) festival held in Chicago. The festival started at a theater in 2008, moved to Soldier Field in 2012–2015, and to Addams/Medill Park in 2016–2018. In 2019, the festival moved to the Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.[1] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the festival was not held in 2020,[2] and the 2021 event was held in October at Addams/Medill Park.[3] The 2022 festival was scheduled to be held at the United Center on July 8–10,[4] but was subsequently cancelled.[5]
