Kirk Franklin, Donnie McClurkin and Fantasia and Diane Barrino are headlining the Chicago Gospel Fest this weekend.

Admission is free.

"This year’s special lineup will be a tribute to the many genres within gospel music, drawing from classical to R&B to traditional gospel music performed by the industry’s top, award-winning artists,” said Megan McDonald, executive director of the Mayor’s Office of Special Events.
