City around

Welcome To Elmhurst, IL

The Chicago suburb emerged in the northeastern region of the state along Salt Creek. Native Americans made the area home for hundreds of years until European-Americans arrived and began establishing settlements in 1836.

Today, the quaint little Midwest town boasts year-round activities, events and outdoor recreation options. Guests have the chance to learn about the area at the Elmhurst History Museum. Perhaps enjoy the arts at the Elmhurst Art Museum or the Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art.

Things To Do

For four days each February, Elmhurst College presents the annual Elmhurst College Jazz Festival. During the event, some of the finest jazz performers in the country arrive to provide concerts and offer workshops. Student bands perform and receive advice and critiques from professional musicians.

During the summer nights, warm weather and star-studded skies bring Movies in the Park on Friday nights. All venture to Wilder Park to enjoy the many family-friendly features presented each week.

Each summer, Elmhurst's Spring Road Business Association hosts Music at the Gazebo events on Thursday evenings. From the first of June until the middle of August, all are invited to bring, blankets, lawn chairs and snacks to the park for the concerts, which begin at 7:00 P.M. Each week different artists offer presentations ranging from classical to Motown.

In July, the Elmhurst Garden Club hosts the annual Garden Walk and Faire. Community destinations and homeowners welcome guests to tour their gardens, which range from modest to grand. Wilder Park additionally hosts an array of vendors offering various plants and unusual gardening accessories and decorations.

In August, kite-flying fans unite in the vast green spaces of the community for the annual Kite Fest. Professional kite fliers thrill spectators with their elaborate kites and tricks. Youngsters have the chance to attend free kite-building sessions and get lessons in flying. Sweet treats are also provided.

The community bids farewell to summer each August during the Park Palooza. The event takes place at Berens Park and includes live concerts, a wine and beer garden, food trucks and family games and activities.
