If you're coming to Chicago between June 29 and July 8, you'd better be going to the Taste of Chicago. How could you miss a sampling of foods from more than 70 restaurants, dancing the calories away at a variety of concerts with free admission, the entire Chicago Country Music Festival and a crazy long list of performances, demonstrations and events at the Taste's various stages?

If you're a health nut, you can show up at Grant Park at 8:30 a.m. on July 1 to participate in the Bally Total Fitness Race to Taste.

And if you're in the city on July 3rd, you can get a preview of Independence Day blasts with the festival's own fireworks display, orchestrated by the good folks at Melrose Pyrotechnics, who also put on the bi-weekly shows at the Navy Pier and the displays at Chicago White Socks, Chicago Bears and Chicago Bulls games.
