The 2020 Taste of Randolph Street Cancelled Due To COVID-19

As a 501(c)(3) community organization and delegate agency for the City of Chicago, the West Loop Community Organization (WLCO) carries a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of our neighborhood and City. During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring everyone is healthy includes practicing social distancing guidelines whenever possible.

As we continue to receive updates and guidance from all levels of government, it is with great sadness and the utmost responsibility that we have decided to cancel this year's Taste of Randolph Street festival. Event producer StarEvents will be refunding all vendor application fees.

The Taste of Randolph Street has put local restaurants front and center for over 20 years, and we will continue to support our award-winning food and beverage establishments with a different plan to celebrate Taste throughout the month of June. Stay tuned for details on what we have cookin’!

Globally, we are experiencing unprecedented times. We are doing our very best to bring resources to both our business and residential communities. We believe that brighter days are ahead of us. We know that one day, we will reunite, break bread and dance our worries away. Until then, let's please do our part in the battle against COVID-19, practice social distancing when necessary, and stay home whenever you can.
