Today – 25th of June, marks the start of 2010 Taste of Chicago Festival. This is by far Chicago’s biggest and most popular annual event. Starting on the Fourth of July in 1980 for the first time, the Taste of Chicago has become the largest outdoor food fest of the world. The festival is estimated to attract more than 3 million people each year.
With the kids on summer break, families drive to this Midwest attraction from all over the places. Some of the best restaurants and food vendors host their stalls around the Grant Park for 10 days. A large number of stages have artists performing live, all around. The vendors offer a variety of food along with bite size samples – you have 100s of varieties to chose from.
Taste of Chicago 2010 celebrates the 30th anniversary of the festival this year, and ends on July 4th.
