Taste of Wheaton

Summer is the season you start waiting for before it’s even over. It’s the time for pleasant weather, leisure, music, evening strolls, and festivals.

The Taste of Wheaton 2019, running in downtown Wheaton Thursday, May 30 through Sunday, June 2, captures the hustle and bustle of a vibrant community celebrating summer.

Organized annually by the Wheaton Park District and the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce and presented for the sixth year by First Trust Portfolios L.P., the Taste fills several square blocks with carnival rides, the best local food, live entertainment, family-friendly games and crafts, a beer garden, business expo, the Cosley Zoo Run for the Animals 5K/10K and half-mile Zippity Zoo Run, art and craft vendors, and Art in the Park.

The four-day festivities take place across Memorial Park, Karlskoga Avenue, Wheaton Avenue, and Liberty Street. Admission to the Taste of Wheaton 2019 is free.
