Springfield, Illinois knows how to throw a festival — and these three are proof. Abe Fest brings two days of live music, local flavor, and homegrown art to the heart of downtown every summer. Old Capitol Blues & BBQ fills the grounds of the Old State Capitol with smoky sounds, top blues acts, and the best BBQ in central Illinois. The Route 66 Mother Road Festival draws car enthusiasts and nostalgia seekers from across the country to celebrate one of America's most iconic highways — now in its 25th year.
