1
“Two to Tango”
(Artango Bar and Steakhouse)
A rare opportunity to nibble outstanding paella, guzzle malbec and publicly humiliate yourself trying to do the classic Argentine dance.
Every Tuesday in June

2
National Donut Day
(Stan’s Donuts, Wicker Park)
At midnight on June 1, the first one-hundred guests get a free half-dozen glazed donuts, in honor of this sweet if made-up holiday.

Ribfest
(Lincoln, Irving Park and Damen)
As much about the music as the meat, the twenty-year-old festival, offers excellent beer, q and clothing decorated with the stars ‘n’ bars. Yum.
June 8-10

4
West Lake Market
(Eden Parking Lot)
With much merch, this warm-weather market kicks off with food, some from an on-site greenhouse. The ubiquitous Jesse White Tumblers perform.
June 10, and then second Sunday of every month through October

5
Tinker with Tinctures
(Staytion Market & Bar)
If you want to be a semi-professional at-home mixologist, you must make your own tinctures. Learn to do that at this event.
