The Ribfest fundraiser is important to Wheaton's local communities. The Exchange Club of Naperville looks forward to continue the tradition of the 34th Ribfest to support the prevention of child abuse and domestic violence.

Legendary San Francisco-based rock band, Third Eye Blind, is set to headline Ribfest Friday night, Sept. 15, 2023.

Led by Stephan Jenkins, 3EB has earned worldwide success during a tumultuous group of years when the major-label recording industry was finally losing its grip on an enterprise that for decades it had dominated with steely efficiency
