Ribfest Chicago


What ignited in the summer of 1999 as a community block party has exploded into Chicago’s most anticipated street festival. Averaging 65,000 pounds of ribs and featuring 25 bands in 25 hours, more than 50,000 people are expected to kick­off summer at the three­-day long Ribfest Chicago. Proceeds of the festival are utilized to fund community activities, area greening efforts and local outreach programs such as the innovative School Grant Program. Thanks to our sponsors who make this event possible. Please support our sponsors listed below. 2009 Ribfest Chicago Overview
