The 2013 Lake In The Hills Summer Sunset Festival will be held
Friday, August 30, 2013 - Sunday, September 1, 2013

Hello from the Summer Sunset Festival organizing committee, and thanks for your interest in the 2013 event. This is the 13th year for the Festival which runs August 30, 2013 through September 1, 2013. The Festival has become a huge and popular community event.

You can bring the kids and enjoy events like the Parade and Kids' Korner. All ages will love the Tilt-a-Whirl, Ferris Wheel and other Carnival Rides, and we have several rides for the little ones, too. With or without the kids, come enjoy the Live Music on Friday, Saturday or Sunday nights.

Stroll through the Craft Show on Saturday, with over 30 exhibitors of home-made, quality items, and come back Sunday and stroll through the Business EXPOsure to see what local businesses have to offer. Then stick around for delicious Food from some of the area's finest restaurants.

The Summer Sunset Festival is FREE to enter to enjoy live music every evening on the main stage and most other events. Attractions you can spend money on are Food, Beverages, and the Carnival.

Be sure to be at Sunset Park on Sunday night for McHenry County's best Fireworks show. Bring a blanket and some lawn chairs, because there is lots of room just south of the parking area to sit and watch the display, which will be almost directly overhead.

We are in the early planning stages. Check back to this website in the Spring of 2013 for more information including applications for events. As soon as we have information to share we will post it here.
