Don’t Miss Sully Fest Saturday

Townies in DeKalb all know that NIU student’s coming back also means it’s Sully Fest weekend! Sullivan’s Tavern on E.

This year, the Footstompers will go on stage from 3:30 – 7:30pm and The Relics take over from 8pm to midnight.

Owners Greg, Albert and Earl Sullivan said they have been trying to figure out how many years they’ve been putting on Sully Fest but still aren’t sure. What they ARE sure of, is that they welcome everyone to come enjoy the fun starting at 3pm this Saturday, August 25th. The grill will be going outside so bring your appetite.

Sullivan’s is located at 722 E. Lincoln Hwy. in DeKalb. No cover charge or parking fee, nor will bags be checked. Come out and see old friends at this end of the summer local bash!
