World of Illumination - Chicago, IL

Festival

👍👍 It was beautiful, I felt like it was longer than the normal drive through shows. I kind of wish they would have had more open inside the park like they did in 2021. Not so much the rides but they had a little Christmas show and just people walking around. Regardless it was beautiful and loved the mu...

Stade’s Farm & Market

Produce market

😐 It's my first time at Stades in McHenry. It was the first day of picking apples named zestar. They were very tart, apparently good for making pies. We ended up picking a few of those and another apple Maier very sweet and delicious. They have a minimum of $6 to pick veggies, sunflowers, or tomatoes...

Walworth County Fairgrounds and Campgrounds- Elkhorn, Wisconsin

DuPage Event Center & Fairgrounds

Fairground

👍 Visited the dinosaur drive thru. It was great but takes a while to get in and get to the display area. Make sure your kids have patience. It could be a while before you hit the rest area. The display was average but couple of dinosaurs were really good. I wonder if visiting post Sunset is really pre...

Bastille Days Milwaukee by the East Town Association

Festival

😐 Fun evening out but nothing special. A little disappointed in the lack of French merch, seemed to be more African themed clothing and takeaways. Music and food was good.

4.30 (229 reviews) (~79.83 km from centre)

Waukesha County Fair

Fairground

😠 Word of warning- they claim to be open at 10:00, but the vendors don't open up until noon, and the rides and games don't open up until 2:00. If you decide to come with your kids at opening, they'll run out of things to do and patience long before they can so much as get a snow cone, much less get on...

Summerfest

Festival

4.00 (167 reviews) (~86.96 km from centre)

Algonquin Founders Day Festival

Festival

😐 Its my opinion that the location is not ideal. Parking is poor. It would be much more scenic along the river and downtown area. No trees. Nice grass but all open. Hard to walk in all grass, better paved surface for some.

3.90 (35 reviews) (~45.54 km from centre)
