Celebrating in Auburn Gresham

Where Auburn Gresham hosts use concessions

Auburn Gresham is a South Side neighborhood of brick bungalows, two-flats and tree-lined streets, with 79th Street as its business spine. The area is known for large, active churches and block clubs that keep community traditions alive. Anniversary banquets, graduation open houses and family reunions fill its calendar, and many events are organized weeks in advance. Block clubs organize cookouts and holiday gatherings, and anniversary celebrations for congregations can run for the whole weekend.

  • Church halls

    Anniversaries, repasts and community dinners that can need dozens of extra seats.

    Concessions here: Halls may limit open food stations or require them in the kitchen area; ask before you plan a cotton candy station.

  • Bungalow backyards

    Graduation parties and birthdays with tents.

    Concessions here: Concession machines need a level table and an outlet; popcorn and cotton candy machines each use a standard circuit, so avoid sharing it with a bounce house blower.

  • 79th Street banquet rooms

    Receptions and fundraisers; confirm outside rental policy.

    Concessions here: Venues often have exclusive caterers, so check whether outside concession machines are allowed.

  • Neighborhood parks

    Family gatherings; Chicago Park District permits may apply.

    Concessions here: Parks without power need a generator for concession machines, and some do not allow food stands without approval.
