Taste of Roscoe Village's Burger Fest

Roscoe Village Chamber of Commerce's (RVCC) biggest fundraiser of the year, Sam Adams Roscoe Village Burger Fest organized by Special Events Management, has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Even though we can't all gather for the festivities this year, we still want you to enjoy a weekend filled with delicious burgers, safely connecting with friends and neighbors, and supporting Roscoe Village businesses. Taste of Roscoe Village's Burger Fest will feature a weekend of special burgers and adult beverages at participating restaurants for dine-in or takeout, as well as great Burger Fest deals at Roscoe Village businesses.

A portion of the proceeds from all beverages sold from October 2 - 4 will be donated to RVCC to support our mission to create memorable experiences through community programs, support local businesses in their recovery of COVID-19 and enhance public spaces. If you are able to donate, you can do so here. We appreciate any support you can provide as we work together to ensure that our community continues to thrive.
