West Fest Chicago

Norma Kelly

Came here on Sunday during the first weekend. Attendance was quite low but kind of expected probably due to the weather. I've been here done that for many years now and it's not as exciting as it was back then. It's fun for the kids and a great place to chill and people watch. My review is for the food.

I have always loved the Cherry Blossom Festival, it's such a beautiful time of the year and it's always great to get people to go outside and enjoy the city & Japan town. I love it because it's so relaxed and not an overwhelmingly huge event. It's really nice to see people bring their kids out or their pups and just have a nice afternoon to eat and walk around.

Great vibes. Live entertainment, variety of street foods & local restaurants open, mixed crowd, cool drinks/adult beverages, kids corner (bounce houses/activities) doggie corner (treats & doggie pools) plenty of porter stations (with hand hygiene essentials available) craft booths/ clothing, free give aways, just about everything you'd want at a neighborhood gathering. Security were alert and active (we felt safe/relaxed) JUST A GOOD TIME ALL TOGETHER!!!

#WESTFESTISTHEBESTFEST My friends and I have been coming to WestFest for years and, after a 2-year hiatus due to CV19, it was great to see so many good people and so much talent back at it for 2022!
