February 3rd - February 8th 2025

Chicago Cider Week (CCW) is a week-long festival that welcomes thousands of attendees to tastings, paired dinners, charity benefits, parties, workshops and more held throughout Chicago, all of which toast to the incredible craft and community of cider.

CCW originated in 2016 as a grassroots festival with a mission to elevate the Cider Category, which to that point had been somewhat of an underdog. Our profound enthusiasm led us to believe that Chicago deserved more cider-centric events. Over the years, our community has grown well beyond our initial expectations. Today, CCW provides an avenue to share our deep passion for cider with all.

Chicago Cider Week is made possible with the support of our amazing sponsors, cider makers, small businesses, venues, industry professionals, and friends within our important community.
