Chance the Rapper loves Chicago, and now he's bringing it a music festival.

The 23-year-old, label-free rap prodigy is kicking off Magnificent Coloring Day on September 24. It'll be a part of his upcoming tour and include Alicia Keys, John Legend, Lil Wayne, Skrillex, Young Thug, 2 Chainz, Tyler the Creator, and more.

The festival will be the first to be in U.S. Cellural Field, the home of the White Sox, in Chicago's South Side. If you're a member of the baseball team's Blacklist newsletter, you'll be able to buy tickets on Wednesday, according to the Chicago Tribune. Otherwise, tickets go on sale Friday on Ticketmaster.

Chance is also promising that it'll be hosted by "a very special guest," which could be anyone. Kanye? Michelle Obama? Some dude on the White Sox? Who knows?
