We have another weekend packed full of festivals, fairs, and even more fireworks right here in Champaign County, too

Take your pick, but you are guaranteed to find something fun for your family with all the fairs and festivals happening this weekend around town

A quick glimpse at the chambanamoms event calendar tells us that many favorite nearby festivals are happening this last week of July. AND we have some rescheduled fireworks from the sketchy weather around the 4th of July on the docket, too. Make sure you check out our fairs and festivals post if you’re specifically looking for those.

On the topic of fairs, the Champaign County Fair will be wrapping up this weekend. We have tips for you on planning your visit that you can check out right now, but packing cash and remembering your clear bag are our top two things we need to remind you of if you’re planning a visit to the fair.

Did you know: OSF Children’s Hospital of Illinois, located in Peoria, is the only children’s hospital outside of Chicago.
