Village of Westmont
Date Issued: June 4, 2015
On Thursday, June 4, the Westmont Street Fair will be kick off its 2015 season. This year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever.
“To accommodate the continuing growth of the event, we’ve secured permission from the Village to close an additional block of Cass Avenue for the event,” says Westmont Special Events President John Chorney. “A lot of downtown businesses have embraced this event and will have specials and outdoor promotions. NEAT Restaurant will be hosting a lot of new activities including laser tag and live music. It is our hope to bring visitors to Westmont, which will help promote our central business district and brand our downtown as a destination that provides fun for the whole family.”
The Westmont Street Fair will be held on Thursdays from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. in June, July and August in downtown Westmont. Set-up on Cass begins at 4:30 p.m. New this year, Cass Avenue will be closed for three blocks from Burlington Avenue to Naperville Road. Each week will feature classic cars, live bands, kids activities, DJs, radio station promotions, street fair vendors, and more.
