The Special Events Commission consists of
fifteen local members appointed by the Mayor with City Council
concurrence. The group’s primary function, as outlined in a City
ordinance, is to develop, promote and coordinate a series of
community events for the enjoyment and education of both the
residents of Des Plaines and visitors. Meeting at 7:00 pm on the
first Wednesday of every month at City Hall, the Commission plans a
calendar of events that includes several community oriented events.
The Commission continues to explore avenues to enhance the
quality of life in the community. For additional information on the
Special Events Commission, call the Office of the Mayor at
