Plan it for me
Chicago's premier food and wine festival occupies the Harris Theater Rooftop at Millennium Park each late September, drawing James Beard Award winners and top chefs for four days of themed culinary experiences. The centerpiece Grand Cru event pairs acclaimed cuisine with fine wines and spirits in ticketed afternoon and evening sessions, while other events include Hamburger Hop, Tacos & Tequila with Rick Bayless, and Rise & Shine Gourmet brunch. With the Bean and cloud gate as backdrop, it is as much a signature Chicago experience as a food festival.
