Justin Roberts
A five-time Grammy-nominated band and Ravinia favorite, The New York Times says, “He has a remarkable ability to see through a child’s eyes…”
Village Welcome
We salute Northfield with remarks from Illinois elected officials and village trustees.
King Saturday
Now this is a party! King Saturday will crank out your favorite rock hits from the late ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s, featuring Northfield’s own Laura Cravens on vocals.
Dick Holliday and the Bamboo Gang
This Chicago band from the mid-‘80s and ‘90s has its roots in Northfield, and they will reunite for a final, one-of-a-kind performance playing a blend of classic rock, funk and reggae.
Community Fireworks
Not just any show. We’re going all-out with a thrilling, action-packed display. Clarkson Park is the ideal setting for our fireworks tribute to everything we love about Northfield.
Pig Roast & Corn Roast
Hofherr Meat Company will celebrate our past with a whole hog pig roast, plus all the trimmings. Just a century ago, a big reason Winnetkans came to Northfield was to buy a butchered pig from our farmers.
Food and Drink
Featured local food trucks from Stormy’s, Taco Nano, U Dawg U and Hofherr’s will deliver your favorites. Beer and wine will also be sold.
