Hygge Festival - February 7 - 17, 2025

 

The Danish concept of “hygge” (pronounced hoo-gah) has been around for a long time. It refers to the ritual of embracing life’s simple pleasures. Feeling relaxed, cozy and surrounded by the warmth of family, friends, community and fire all encompass the idea of hygge. See the schedule below to see how local businesses are embracing the hygge season. And check out the Winter Fireplace Tour of Cook County happening all month long.
