Now in its 5th year, the Cider Summit Chicago opens up the world of artisan cider to the general public with over 150 different ciders to try.
Featuring ciders from over seven states and six different countries, cider from around the world is showcased at the event which takes place at Navy Pier’s Aon Grand Ballroom on Feb. 11 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. As in past years there are two sessions; tickets begin at $35 and include a tasting glass and of course samples of cider.
