The Taste of Chicago opens in Grant Park Friday. with more than 30 food vendors and plenty of musical performers.
It is returning to Gran Park for the first time since 2019, with a pop-up version in neighborhoods around the city taking its place.
There will be more than 30 vendors to choose from. That is still fewer than normal years as the event is still slightly scaled back. But there will be no shortage of food, live music and all of the concerts at the Taste are free admission this year. Of course, security is e top of mind especially with the mass shooting in Highland Park earlier this week. But Mayor Lori Lightfoot said the city is ready and protected.
"We are very mindful of what's happened," Mayor Lightfoot said."We are looking at all events that are on the calendar from now until the fall and making sure we are learning the lessons we can."
