We’re Back—and We’re Building Together.

After taking time to pause and prepare, the African American Coalition of Kane County is proud to announce the return of Juneteenth as a three-day cultural celebration in 2026.

This year’s Juneteenth will be bigger, more intentional, and more community-driven than ever—rooted in history, powered by culture, and built by the people it represents.

As we plan for this powerful return, we invite YOU to be part of the journey.

There are many ways to get involved:

• Join a Juneteenth Planning Committee

• Serve as a Volunteer

• Apply to be a Vendor or Food Truck

• Participate as Entertainment, Performers, or Cultural Groups

• Support through Sponsorships and Partnerships

Juneteenth has always been about freedom, resilience, and collective progress. This celebration is not just an event—it’s a community effort.

Thank you for standing with AACKC—then, now, and as we build what’s next.

Let’s make Juneteenth 2026 unforgettable—together.
