The state’s largest Illinois wine festival returns to North Utica in 2025. The festival began in 2003, and each year our following has gotten bigger and bigger.

You’ll enjoy some amazing music on stage, while literally wine-ing through the event. Shop with local businesses and Canal Market vendors, enjoy food at local restaurants and event food trucks… there’s so much to do you’ll want to make a weekend out of it. You’ll find hiking trails and state parks all around. North Utica will be beautiful at this time of year and is a very walkable town, with easy parking access just about everywhere you look.
