AuroraFest this weekend celebrates the Grateful Dead.  There is live music, food, a parade, and more events.

The theme of this year’s festival is “Grateful Dead or Alive,” inspired by the Dead & Company anniversary concert at Cornell University back in May.

According to the Citizen, members of the band stayed in Aurora this Spring as they prepared for the concert at Barton Hall that raised $2.5 million dollars for charity.

Here are pictures from the AuroraFest Parade.
