Zombies have taken over the world - but fear not - Elgin knows how to wait it out. Enter "The Safe Zone" in the heart of Downtown Elgin and be immersed into a post-apocalypic environment. Enjoy three stages of live entertainment, live graffiti artists, a hookah lounge, special guests like MeTV’s SVENGOOLIE and roaming actors and performances that create surprises around every corner. Some steadfast businesses will be open for you to get food, beverages, shelter, and provisions.
