It is never too early to start planning for Pinkfest 2016. I have heard some interest in visiting Evanston, which is an upscale community with a lovely downtown full of shops, theaters, restaurants, and cafes. It is also easily accessible along the Red and Purple lines. They are also very progressive in becoming only the 7th municipality to require gender neutral restrooms.
