On July 3, over 30,000 people gathered at the Oak Brook Sports Core for the annual Taste of Oak Brook. The event featured local restaurants, food vendors, live music, and family fun. Children enjoyed free face painting and inflatables, while adults visited the expanded Alter Brewing Beer Garden. Musical acts included Fearless and Sixteen Candles. A 300-drone show dazzled the crowd before a 22-minute fireworks finale capped off the evening. Admission was free.
