Sound & Gravity is a unique adventure for music enthusiasts, an immersive experience showcasing a diverse range of musical genres, including jazz, experimental, contemporary classical, and indie music, reflecting the eclectic programming ethos of its organizing entity, Constellation Performing Arts.

The 2026 edition takes place once again at beloved Chicago venues Constellation, Hungry Brain, Judson & Moore, Beat Kitchen, Guild Row, Athenaeum Center, and Rockwell on the River, all in Chicago’s Bricktown/Avondale neighborhoods, known for its burgeoning creative industries. Capitalizing on the neighborhood's walkability with most venues a 5-15 minute walk from each other, Sound & Gravity offers attendees the opportunity to experience the local culture during four days of cutting-edge performances. As Downbeat praises, “this is not simply a celebration of the local scene; there’s a formidable contingent of performers from four continents.”

Sound & Gravity also serves as a fundraiser for Constellation Performing Arts, a not-for-profit organization that has become a cornerstone of Chicago’s forward-thinking music scene. Founded in 2013 by musician and presenter Mike Reed, Constellation has become a hub for innovative musical practices. Since its inception, Constellation has filled a crucial void in Chicago’s cultural landscape by providing a reliable, high-end performance platform for avant-garde and experimental music. Sound & Gravity extends this mission, offering a concentrated dose of the venue’s innovative spirit across multiple locations in one of the city’s most creative neighborhoods.
