Annual festival celebrates summer in McHenry
The Fiesta Days festival is returning to McHenry for 10 days this July. It is a presentation of the McHenry Chamber of Commerce.
There will be musical performances, amusement rides, a kids' ice cream social, and other family-friendly events. Some of the musical acts that will be performing at this year's festival include Ace Frehley, Stephen Pearey, Sam Ilanas, Makena Hartlin, and Bella Cain.
Food will be available for purchase, as will beer; designated drivers will receive free non-alcoholic drinks throughout the festival.
There is set to be a Harley motorcycle show, a car show, a bags tournament, a parade with the theme ‘All that Jazz’, and the McHenry River Run at East Campus High School. Also taking place will be the one-day Arts and Crafts in the Park, which will feature over 100 artisans selling handmade items like jewelry, clothing, and paintings; local stores will also be having sidewalk sales.
Organizers may be investing in banner printing services from McHenry print companies leading up to the event; banners can be used to let people know which performers are appearing, or to mark off certain areas.
Fiesta Days will take place from July 10 to 19; Arts and Crafts in the Park will be held on July 18 from 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM. Admission is $5; evening concerts cost $12 in advance or $15 at the gate. Call 315-385-4300 to learn more.
