RomeoFest August 7-10 is already the biggest event in Romeoville, with four days of live music, carnival rides, a variety of food, activities, fireworks, and a laser show. It’s now getting even bigger with the addition of a multi-platinum headlining artist: Uncle Kracker.
For over two decades, Uncle Kracker has consistently soundtracked good times with his boldly breezy blend of country, pop, and rock spiked with a splash of hip-hop. He has impressively notched #1 entries in three different genre lanes, topping Pop, Adult Contemporary, and Country charts. The platinum “Follow Me” clinched #1 in four countries, while the double-platinum “When the Sun Goes Down” [with Kenny Chesney] vaulted to #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks Chart and more.
Uncle Kracker will be the headliner on Thursday night (August 7), taking the Romeoville Toyota Pavilion stage at 8:30 p.m. right after opening act Melissa Ann concludes. RomeoFest is free to attend, and no special ticket is required to see the show.
“We’re always looking for ways to enhance Romeofest,” said Mayor Noak. “We felt that a major headlining band would really elevate the experience, and we’re thrilled to welcome Uncle Kracker to Romeoville.”
