Lombard Boasts Food, Friends, and Fun at This Year’s Festivals

Welcome to Lombard, where fun is always just around the corner! Residents are finding that the gorgeous summer weather is providing them with an ample amount of things to do for the next couple of months. With a community calendar bursting with activities and the excitement of downtown Chicago just thirty minutes away, it’s clear that this private, suburban town has the best of both worlds. Come see what makes Lombard so special by stopping by one of the many events this July and August!
If it’s been going on for 44 years, chances are it’s gotta be good. Come celebrate the 45th year of Lombard’s annual Sacred Heart Germanfest for your fair share of brats, booze, and beats! The Fest takes place in mid-July and is jam-packed with activities for all ages. The kids will go nuts when they see all the crazy carnival rides to choose from, while older attendants will act like kids themselves when they visit the Fest’s casino. Those with a competitive streak will also enjoy participating in the bags tournament, bingo games, and $5,000 raffle. Of course, no German celebration would be complete without hearty food and beer, and the Fest has plenty of it! Choose between Bavarian favorites like pulled pork sliders, sauerkraut, giant pretzels, strudel, and juicy bratwurst. Guests can wash down their meals with a fine selection of beers, wines, and margaritas while listening to live music from performers such as 7th Heaven, Black Cadillac and Supernaut. With so much to offer, it’s no wonder that the Sacred Heart Germanfest has been around for so long. Be sure to stop by for an exciting weekend!

While it may not be as wild as the Germanfest, the Yorktown Farmers Market is definitely a worthwhile way to spend a Wednesday afternoon. Attendants love that they can support their town of Lombard while also picking out enough tasty treats to last the rest of the week. The Market runs through September and features the season’s freshest picks, ranging from organic fruits and veggies to natural herbs and olive oils, as well as succulent baked goods. Whether you’re a whiz in the kitchen or simply adore the smell of baked bread, the Market is the perfect stop to satisfy all culinary cravings. Make sure to swing by so you can get your hands on this summer’s most mouth-watering morsels!
