There is one particular summer festival that attracts thousands from all over to this quaint small town every year, and its main theme is strawberries.
If you haven’t heard of it yet, make sure to put Long Grove’s Strawberry Fest on your radar.
This strawberry-infused summer festival is returning to Long Grove
Each year, people of all ages look forward to three days filled with strawberry-infused foods and drinks, carnival rides, family activities, and live music on three stages.
Taking place from June 26 to June 28, the delicious strawberry will be the star of the show at the Strawberry Fest. Many of the area’s most popular restaurants, chefs, and vendors will set up pop-up shops to serve unique strawberry-centric dishes.
Attendees will have the chance to enjoy a variety of strawberry-flavored treats, including strawberry rhubarb pie, strawberry-flavored salsa, strawberry popcorn, and much more.
In addition to the tasty food, festivalgoers can enjoy a carnival and an exciting lineup of live entertainment. General admission is $7 per day, while children aged 12 and under can enter for free.
