Shoe Fest is proud to announce the lineup for the 8th annual festival. Shoe Fest will once again be held at the beautiful and scenic Camp Shaw-Waw-Nas-See in Manteno, IL (less than 1 hour south of Chicago), Labor Day weekend (August 31-September 2). Tickets are on sale now!
Jam packed with events for both adults and kids, Shoe Fest will be loaded with family friendly and kid activities, special music sets for the kids, family camping and more – so bring the kids along or take them to Grandma’s and set out on your own, there is something for everyone! In addition to the great music and activities, Shoe Fest once again encourages you to enjoy the amazing surroundings; swim in the creek, dance among the water fall, and enjoy nature walks along the Kankakee State Park. This year will also feature the inaugural Shoe Fest Leisure Olympics!
But as always, it’s all about the music. With 3 stages and campfire corner, your ears will never go hungry.
