Glendale Heights Fest Canceled
The Village of Glendale Heights and the Glendale Heights Founders Day Committee are sad to announce that Glendale Heights Fest 2020 will be canceled due to COVID-19. Glendale Heights Fest was scheduled for Wednesday through Sunday, July 15-19 at Camera Park in Glendale Heights. With the guidelines mandated by the State of Illinois, the Village of Glendale Heights and the Founders Day Committee believe that Glendale Heights Fest would not be able to operate while respecting the Governor’s Restore Illinois plan, which calls for no mass gatherings until a vaccine or treatment for COVID-19 is developed. The Village of Glendale Heights believes that the health and safety of Glendale Heights Fest attendees, volunteers, entertainers, vendors, and staff are of the utmost importance.

All playgrounds, the skate park, and basketball courts are closed until further notice. All parks will remain open available for walking, running and bike riding. Please remember to use social distancing while using our parks.
