Bands from all over the United States come downtown to rock out. Music styles range from 1920s Classical, to 1950s Rock N' Roll, to 1980s Pop music. Residents listen to the music on the village green, eat food from local restaurants on Scranton Avenue, and drink in bars like the Mavery Public House and the Inovasi casual. The Bluffinia concert is the second most attended and noted concert series in Lake County, Illinois behind the Ravinia Festival. Each year Lake Bluff organizes a notable parade on Independence Day sponsored by the Lake Bluff July 4 Committee with assistance from American Legion Post 510. The parade features many organizations and entertainers, including a performance by synchronized lawnmower, the local Boy Scout Troop, and various other associations from around the North Shore.
