Overview:
What makes the Do-Division Street Fest and Sidewalk Sale unique is that all elements of this festival are local: the food, the vendors, the
music
, even the featured beer, Pabst Blue Ribbon, is selected based on it's popularity in the 'hood. Given the status of West Division Street as the hottest, hippest most cutting edge neighborhood in Chicago, the events' 45,000 attendees wouldn't want this festival any other way but local.

The Do-Division Street Fest and Sidewalk Sale spans 10 city blocks, on Division Street from Ashland to Leavitt, and features a live music stage, a wide variety of high quality food offered by Division Street restaurants, plenty of ice cold beer, unique kid's activities and family programming, a chess tournament, and an elaborate Sidewalk Sale put on by Division Street Merchants.

Chicago's hottest, hippest  'hood….
Division Street between Ashland and Leavitt is packed with trendy boutiques, salons, spas, restaurants, bistros, bakeries, coffee shops and cyber cafes. It's wide, tree lined sidewalks give it a distinctly European feel. During warm  weather months, there are as many as a dozen sidewalk cafes in operation. West Division Street's restaurants and bars all have one thing in common: high quality in all price ranges.

Food, Fashion, Fun….
Division Street's restaurant choices can satisfy any craving including Thai, Tapas, Sushi, organic pizza, comfort food, Mexican, Northern Italian and award winning fusion. And, from the 'cheapest beers in Chicago' to some of the best wine selections in the city, Division Street has plenty to offer imbibers. The Division Street area is also home to many of Chicago's fashion designers, which may explain Division Street's multitude of cutting edge, high quality clothing and shoe boutiques.  Visit www.do-division.com to learn more about this exciting business district.
