Greektoberfest and Apple Fest Bring Fall Festivities to Ravenswood This Weekend

By Socialhood News · Il/Chicago/Ravenswood · October 17, 2025

Ravenswood residents looking for autumn activities have two major events to look forward to this weekend. The Lincoln Square Greektoberfest will be held on October 18-19 at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church (2727 W Winona), offering a warm taste of Greek culture as the weather cools. Meanwhile, the 38th Annual Lincoln Square Ravenswood Apple Fest is set to celebrate the season with all things apple-themed.

For those seeking an evening of local craft beverages, the Spirits of Ravenswood event at Ravenswood Event Center (4025 N Ravenswood Ave) features tasting portions of local craft drinks paired with food from the venue's talented catering staff. This 21+ event directly benefits the Food Pantry and Community Kitchen at Ravenswood Community Services, making it both a fun night out and a meaningful contribution to the community.

Business professionals should mark their calendars for the 21st annual multi-chamber Networking Extravaganza on October 8 at WhirlyBall. This unique networking event, presented in partnership by the Lincoln Park Chamber of Commerce and Greater Ravenswood Chamber of Commerce, combines business connections with the thrill of WhirlyBall—a game blending lacrosse, hockey, basketball, and bumper cars for a memorable networking experience. Whether you're interested in food, festivals, or professional connections, Ravenswood has something for everyone this October!
