Village Hall is accessible during Rock 'n Wheels, and restrooms are located in the rotunda on both the first and second floors. Port-a-Potties are also available adjacent to the venue, on Army Trail Blvd. 

Due to Health Department regulations near food, pets of any kind are no longer allowed at Rock 'n Wheels.

Free rides for small children are provided.

Every attempt is made to hold Rock ’n Wheels!  Because of this, we do not make a decision to cancel simply because of the threat of rain early in the day.  A determination will be made after 2 p.m.

When the decision is made to cancel a show, the information will be posted here on our website, our Facebook page (AddisonEvents) and X (formerly known as Twitter) (@AddisonVillage).

There are some picnic tables available.  Most attendees will need to have their own lawn chair or blanket.

You may set up your chairs or blankets early on event day, but please keep in mind the Village of Addison cannot be responsible for items that are moved or stolen.  When a larger crowd is expected (on a night when a national act is headlining) there may be a "Standing Room Only" section near the stage.  Any chairs or blankets placed in this area will be removed by Village staff.

The Craft & Vintage Fair is run by the Addison Historical Museum.  Crafters may register by contacting Susan English at museum@addison-il.org or call 630-628-1433.

Regular events by the Village of Addison include Memorial Day, Harvest Fest, Mayor’s Community Charity Ball and Christmas Tree Lighting.  Occasionally other events are held as well.

Unless otherwise specified, most Village events are held at Village Hall, 1 Friendship Plaza, or on the Village Green, directly east of the building.
