Mayfest 2022
2022-05-27 08:00 - 2022-05-29 17:00 | Mount Carroll, IL
Mayfest will look a little different this year due to construction in the quad so all activities for Mayfest 2022 will be located at the North Lawn of Shimer Campus. The Beer/Wine Tent and stage will be on the Parking Lot across from the Ambulance Garage on the corner of Seminary and Jackson. The Food Tent will be smaller this year and will sit just South of the Beer Tent on the flat area flanked by trees where we’ve done Car Shows in the past. Vendors will line the sidewalks towards Dearborn and Metcalf Halls. The newly constructed Mayfest Stage on the Quad will be utilized with local acts and children activities but will face North towards the gates allowing people to sprawl on the lawn.
