Polish Festival
 
The last time we were in Chicago, there was a Polish Festival, in early May at Millennium Park.. I can't seem to find anything about a festival for 2011. We would love to go in early May again, while all the tulips are out and hope for another festival. Thanks Richard

There's usually a Polish Independence day parade on May 1st...maybe that's what you saw... try searching for the parade and related activities

Gary--thanks; I will search for a Independence Day parade.

So, I have found that there is a Polish Constitution Day Parade every year. I think it is held on the Saturday closest to May 3rd. That means the parade would be on April 30th. Any thoughts/information to confirm?? Trying to google, but have not found anything.

Gary; Thanks much. We had such a great time visiting the last time we were in Chicago and didn't know this parade was happening. Richard
