One of the more newer ones that happened last year, photo opportunities with Disney character, one for each day for 2 hours, Woody for the first day, Stitch for day 2, and Moana for the last day. I have included pictures from last year's Taste, and I can't wait to see what will be in store for Taste of Orland Park 2026. Maybe some more Disney characters.

The cows are my favorite! I wish I could give this place a 5 star but this last visit we lost 2 kids in our group because the hay stacks have two exits. I wish they could block one side off. Also, a SOBER, careful adult in our group almost got plowed in the head with one of those hammers from the strong man game while she was walking by a man doing it. They really should put a staff member there AND put a fence around it. Those adults having fun aren't looking around every time they swing... it's a recipe for disaster.
