Are you looking for the ideal piece of refinished furniture, seasonal accents, sports-related memorabilia, antiques, or expensive "junque"? You're guaranteed to find what you're looking for (and more!) with 600+ vendors each month.

The Flea Market is held on the first Sunday of every month and the preceding Saturday in a location an hour west of Chicago (March-December).

Moviemakers, celebrities, and collectors come to us for their monthly fix of adventure and discovery. Come check out for yourself what all the TV shows about collecting and old things are truly about. The adage "One man's junk is another man's treasure" was a favorite of Helen Robinson's.

We've been a location where individuals can come to have fun searching for and discovering the one item they've been looking for for a very long time.

More than 600 vendors are located outside, indoors, and under sheds. People claim that if they made it, Kane is where you'll find it!

Sheena Easton, a Prince protegee, will perform at Village Green on Tuesday, July 26, to close out the concert series.
The Mid-Summer Classics Concert Series in 2021 was supposed to include KC & the Sunshine Band, but they canceled.

The Elk Grove Village, Illinois-based Entertainment Management Group will receive a contract worth no more than $375,000, with the park district agreeing to refund the village for $50,000 of that amount.
In addition to presenting the event with staging, sound, lights, and other production costs, Entertainment Management Group will pay bands and other contract-related expenditures.

The day after Thanksgiving, Entertainment Management Group and Johnny Rockets host the Village Green Holiday Tree Lighting event.
