Arlington Heights Public Works, restaurant management and other other business members worked the last Thursday and Friday of September 2024 for the set up of Harmony Fest and Taste of Arlington Heights.
Participating vendors are supplied with electrical power, lightning, tables, chairs and tents while the restaurants focus on preparing their specialty dining delights.
A surprise Bangkok Express will be positioned as a Pop-Up restaurant at Taste of Arlington Heights in front of their old location where they operated for 30 years on Vail Avenue between Campbell Street and Wing/Davis Streets. Owner Kim Cho took on the name Bangkok Express to represent their operation when it serves as a Pop-Up restaurant. The former dine-in restaurant may also take a permanent location as a carry-out location in the future.
The 3rd Annual Harmony Fest, featuring the Taste of Arlington Heights is happening Friday, Sept. 27th, 5-11 p.m., and Saturday, Sept. 28th, 3-11 p.m., for free concerts in Harmony Park, and amazing food and drinks from Arlington Heights restaurants! This family friendly event takes place in Harmony Park, and on Campbell Street and Vail Avenue, in downtown Arlington Heights.
