What Are Some Fun Things To Do In Naperville This Summer?
With our studio located in Riverwalk Plaza, right across the street from the famous Dandelion Fountain on the Riverwalk, we’re right in the heart of Downtown Naperville. We love our city so much for the history, beauty, and so many fun things to experience for both, residents AND visitors!
Check out some of the best things to do, all season long, as well as some extra-special events, going on throughout the next few weeks!
***Naperville Riverwalk
Considered the "crown jewel" of Naperville, the Riverwalk is a place of beauty and tranquility along the West Branch of the DuPage River. It features 1.75 miles of brick paths, fountains, bridges, meeting and event places, outdoor sculpture and artwork, recreational facilities, and celebratory memorials. The Riverwalk is a preferred destination and an ideal place to stroll, unwind and reflect. Come relax and enjoy the scene. The Riverwalk has something for everyone. Best of all, it’s a place to be enjoyed for generations to come

***Riverwalk Duck Race
August 14th
2,000 plastic ducks will “race” in the DuPage River from the foot bridge near Centennial Park to the Eagle Street Bridge near the Naperville Municipal Center.
All proceeds will benefit the Riverwalk Foundation for education and enhancements along the winding brick path of the city’s natural treasure in the heart of the central business district.

***Dupage Children’s Museum
A trip to DuPage Children’s Museum is the time, the space, and the opportunity for children and their adults to take play and learning to new heights!

***Centennial Beach
Jump into summer as you swim in Centennial Beach’s historic stone quarry. It’s not a swimming pool, it’s not a lake, but a swimming experience like no other! Wade into the zero-depth entry and swim to depths of 15 feet.
For generations, Centennial Beach has been the local “swimming hole” for many Naperville residents and their guests. It’s a great place to meet friends, gather with family, or simply relax and enjoy.
