INTRODUCING: FIRST FRIDAYS
Our NEW Monthly Street Festival Series
On the first Friday of each month, we bring the party to a different Oak Park business district. Hosted by the Oak Park-River Forest Chamber of Commerce—with generous support from the Village of Oak Park—First Fridays is your invitation to explore the best of local.
Each event transforms a neighborhood into a lively celebration of community, creativity, and culture. Expect open streets, buzzing vendor markets, live music, cold drinks, family fun, and fresh finds from the businesses you know and love (and a few you haven’t discovered yet).
Whether you’re dancing in Southtown, shopping in Chicago-Austin, sipping in Pleasant, or snacking on Madison, you’ll feel the energy of a community that shows up for each other.
