Chillifest 2024 on WICS

"Chillifest was a record event for us and we could not be more thankful to each and everyone of you who support our business and love our style! If it wasn't for you, we would not be here!"

-Style & Grace Boutique - Local Business Owner

"Well, that's a wrap on another year down and this show just keeps getting better and better. This year was fantastic. Elizabeth, you and your group do a fantastic job. One of the smoothest run shows of this size that we go to."

-M. Dressen - Chillifest Vendor

"Congratulations on a wonderful, successful CHILLIFEST! I went both days and the crowds were greate! I don't remember there being so many vendors - I took the grandkids on Saturday and they had a ball!"

-J. Ofcarcik - Chillifest Attendee

I had the pleasure of attending Chillifest and had an amazing time. The weather was perfect and the square was buzzing with food, entertainment and lots of people. The variety of vendors around the square was wonderful, I enjoyed looking at so many interesting things. I bought some donuts from the THS CEO students, they were so delicious. The shopping around the square in the brick and mortar shops was also great, many sales and I bought a couple of tops at Little Luxuries as well as a jumper from Uprooted.

-J. Vincent, Chillifest Attendee
