Food vendors wanted for West Chicago Food Festival

The City of West Chicago is looking for food vendors for its newest special event, a food festival scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 13, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. in downtown West Chicago.

The festival will be free to the public, with food available for purchase from an assortment of vendors. Attendees of the event also will enjoy exciting entertainment and cooking demonstrations.

Vendors are encouraged to offer at least one "tasting portion" for $3 or less. They also will have the opportunity to compete in a Tasting Competition to earn unique awards (and bragging rights).

Food trucks, food vendors, and vendors that relate to the food festival theme are encouraged to apply. There is no registration for this year's event, however a $25 refundable deposit is required for vendors requesting electrical hook-up. Alcohol is not permitted at this event.

Vendor registration forms are now available on the city's website at westchicago.org under Special Events.

For more information, contact Bethany Bayci, the city's special event coordinator, at bbayci@westchicago.org.
