Champaign-Urbana Days (CU Days)

Celebrate Champaign-Urbana Days, a long-standing cherished tradition that brings our community together to honor shared heritage and culture!
This three-day event features live music, local cuisine, and a vibrant marketplace with community outreach vendors, nonprofit organizations, and merchandise vendors selling goods.
