Damage to Union Park from Pitchfork will cost $4,700
Fixing up Union Park from the Pitchfork Music Festival isn’t going to be cheap. The security deposit from host Big Stik will cover the bill, which is expected to be $4,723.50. It’s still not nearly as expensive as cleanup after the 2015 festival, which rang up at $6,500 due to heavy rain. [Tribune]
