The highlight of summer in the Chicago suburbs is Strawberry Fest three consecutive days of sweet summertime fun! Attendees of this annual festival experience everything from strawberry-infused creations like prime rib sandwiches slathered in strawberry salsa to classic strawberry pie-eating contests. Although Strawberry Fest begins and ends with the almighty strawberry, in no way is it an exclusive berry party. For those who like to mix it up, chef-driven barbecue and other decadent local treats offer something for every taste bud. And when it comes to entertainment, Strawberry Fest leaves nothing to the imagination either, with a classic carnival, multiple stages of live music, and the Kids Zone featuring enduring family activities at no charge.

The first area of attraction at Strawberry Fest is, well, the strawberries. Some of the areas best restaurants and chefs set up shop to serve up unique strawberry-centric food and drink. This year, featured items include: strawberry BBQ sauces, deep fried strawberries on a stick, chocolate strawberry popcorn, strawberry kabobs, strawberry jams, and much more. In respect to non-strawberry eats, a wide variety of vendors will be on hand dishing out everything from BBQ to other summer delights.
