Q. Does the park close if it rains?
A. No, HomerFest will remain open if it rains but close temporarily during periods of lightning. HomerFest works with the local emergency management weather team to monitor the weather approaching HomerFest. HomerFest will temporarily close during any period where lightning is present. All guests will be asked to leave the park at that time. When the lightning is safely past the park, HomerFest will reopen.

Q. What do you suggest a family bring for a day at HomerFest?
A. Summertime in Homer Glen can be quite sunny and warm. HomerFest suggests that you bring sun tan lotion and sunglasses. Wear good shoes because HomerFest is around 10 acres in size with some of the area on grass. You might want to bring some money for food and beverages and the carnival area rides and games. Most of all, have fun.
