Made up of a collection of distinct communities that are separated from the bustle of the city center, Chicago's Northwest Suburbs are laid-back and relaxing, with many events and festivals that rival the happenings in Chicago proper. Here's what our real estate agents are most looking forward to in the area this summer. 

  • Itasca Outdoor Concert Series - 111 Gigi Gruber Ln, Itasca, IL 60143
    The town of Itasca hosts outdoor concerts at various locations around the city on select Wednesday evenings throughout the summer months. Always free to the general public, the Itasca Outdoor Concert Series offers family entertainment, and concertgoers are welcome to bring lawn chairs and picnic blankets. Mark your calendar for upcoming concerts, including Sealed With a Kiss on July 30 along the River Walk near Wine With Me, and Prairie Station on August 6 at Peacock Park. 

  • Taste of Roselle - Main St, Roselle, IL 60172
    Starting on August 1, the three-day Taste of Roselle Festival is one of the biggest food events of the year in Chicago's Northwest Suburbs.
