Friday Night Live, in its 7th year, is presented through the generosity of Midland States Bank, Illini Radio Group, and the City of Champaign, with support from Champaign Center Partnership.

Friday Night Live is held from 6-8pm every Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Performances are held at the intersections of Neil & Church, Neil & Park, Chestnut & Main, and Walnut & Chester in Downtown Champaign.

Friday Night Live includes an eclectic mix of music and street performances including bluegrass, jazz, folk, soul, rock, country, and blues, along with a free kids' activity every week.
