Dog Events in Prophetstown, IL

This beloved fall tradition is one of northern Illinois’ largest and longest-running festivals, drawing over 85,000 visitors each year. While pets are more than welcome to attend, keep in mind that not all businesses permit dogs inside. Be sure to ask before entering with Fido. The weekend will feature over 375 vendors offering crafts, antiques and food. On Sunday, the famous Burgoo Stew is served starting at 9 AM.

This dog-friendly Halloween Yappy Hour invites pups and their people to dress in creative costumes, enjoy pet-friendly treats and stroll through Hilldale. Guests can also visit participating shops and restaurants for special activities and offers.

The Haunted Hustle features a Half Marathon, 10K, 5K Run, Dog Jog, Walk, and Kid’s Run, plus a festival after with live music and treats. The 5K Dog Jog includes a shirt, medal, snacks and a costume contest!

Enjoy the beautiful outdoor scenery of the Illinois Valley and your favorite August Hill & ISC wines while hanging out on our spacious hillside. Wine flights, wine by the bottle and a snack picnic box will all be available.
