Celebrating in Irving Park
Where Irving Park hosts use concessions
Irving Park is a mix of brick bungalows, two-flats and the remarkable Villa District, a Chicago Landmark district known for its distinctive early 20th-century homes. Its architecture and garden settings make the Villa a favorite for backyard weddings and garden parties. Even outside the Villa, many Irving Park yards run deep enough for a decent-size gathering.
Villa District gardens
Large yards at the historic homes suit backyard weddings and garden parties, with gate and grass details to plan for.
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.
Bungalow backyards with alley access
Common across the neighborhood for graduations, baptisms and family cookouts.

Independence Park and neighborhood parks
Neighborhood park lawns and fieldhouses for casual gatherings under Chicago Park District rules.
Concessions here: Parks without power need a generator for concession machines, and some do not allow food stands without approval.
Parish halls and banquet rooms
Local halls host communions, receptions and memorial gatherings.
Concessions here: Halls may limit open food stations or require them in the kitchen area; ask before you plan a cotton candy station.
