We can’t wait! ✨🙌🏼
🎉 It's almost time for the return of the Hale Street Tents! Starting late Sunday evening (April 26), Hale Street will be closed between Front Street and Wesley Street to prepare for outdoor dining under the tents to begin on May 1 and continuing through early fall.
Offering outdoor dining from numerous local restaurants and live music on select days, this event is provided by Downtown Wheaton Association .
🚲🛴Please remember that you may not ride bikes, scooters, skateboards or skates under the tents or on downtown sidewalks. If you are on the sidewalk, you need to “walk your wheels” in the downtown (except for the sidewalks on the Illinois Prairie Path ).
You will find numerous opportunities for outdoor dining and live entertainment in other downtown locations and in Wheaton's other shopping districts during warmer months, too, as many Wheaton restaurants and businesses offer outdoor dining and entertainment. Be sure to check out all that's happening and support the local business community throughout Wheaton.
