Since 1983, Collinsville IL has been celebrating the Italian culture and heritage on Main Street every 3rd weekend in September. Live music, 5k parade, pageant, local food , grape stomp, bocce ball, and everything Italian. These people have so much fun every year as they anticipate the festival of festivals. Toasted Ravioli, Italian Cream Cake, Homemade Cannoli, Baby contests, the King and Queen election, Grape stomping, and the best Italian music and live singing I have ever heard.
I am so looking forward to having my spot, right in front of Spirtito’s Italian Grocery, to be able to book sign my cookbooks, Rosalie Serving BestLoved Italian, and Rosalie Serving Country. This Italian Festival would be the perfect place to spend a beautiful fall weekend with your family. Hope to see you there!
