Derrick Martin and Lottie Thompson, both of Chicago enjoy a laugh with their ribs during the opening day of Ribfest Friday June 17, 2022 at the DuPage County Fairgrounds in Wheaton. After 32 years in Naperville and then a pandemic pause, Ribfest has moved to the DuPage County Fairgrounds in Wheaton. The four-day event will be held over Father's Day weekend, just like the very first Ribfest in 1987. “I was so happy that Ribfest is back after two years,” said Thompson.
