What do you get when you mix a great music lineup on three stages, the tasty cuisine of neighborhood restaurants, a new showcase for more than 60 juried artists, an opportunity to sample and buy wine, and a mini carnival-like midway with fun games? Chicago's newest post-Labor Day street happening: Wells Street Fall Fest!
Held in the heart of Chicago's historic Old Town neighborhood, this rebranding of an iconic street festival fave (known for years as the Wine Crush in Old Town) celebrates its 8th anniversary in 2010 with plenty of fun for all ages.
When you're not browsing art or playing fun games, party to the fest's non-stop music. Among the performers on three stages: New Orleans rockers Cowboy Mouth, Beatles tribute band American English, American Idol finalist (and Tinley Park native) Gina Glocksen, Sixteen Candles, 7th Heaven, Dot, Dot, Dot and many, many more!
