This fun-filled event takes place in Chicago and features the most creative bacon dishes prepared by the city's best chefs. Guests can indulge in a walk-around tasting experience, savoring small plates that showcase bacon in all its delicious glory. To complement these mouthwatering dishes, Baconfest also offers bacon-based and bacon-inspired cocktails and brews, crafted by top mixologists and brewers.

In addition to the culinary delights, luxury brands, artisan bacon-makers, and bacontrepreneurs display and sell a wide range of local craft bacons and bacon-related products.
