The Highwood Evening Gourmet Market returns to Everts Park every Wednesday from June 3 through Aug. 26, offering a "Ravinia-like" atmosphere that has made it a North Shore staple. Running from 4:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., the weekly outdoor market features more than 60 vendors providing local wares alongside a diverse selection of food and beverages in a family-friendly setting.

The 2026 season includes the popular Live Evening Concert Series, with performances from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. weekly. Special themed nights will highlight the summer schedule, including Pride in the Park on June 17, Inferno Fest on June 24, and the fan-favorite Garlic Fest on Aug. 12.
