Vulture Fest in Makanda
We've been doing this show for some years now, and wouldn't miss it for anything. You shouldn't either. I tell people that if you do nothing else in Southern Illinois, you have to go to Vulture Fest. I don't have the words to tell you what makes this such a great time, but you will absolutely love your trip here.
