Weekend Ideas in Orland Park
Orland Park's weekend scene runs from patio dining to big family parks. Centennial Park is the village's outdoor anchor with a lake, trails, and an aquatic center, and the restaurant row along 159th and LaGrange has patio seating covered. In the fall, Bengtson's Pumpkin Farm turns into a regional draw.
Orland Park is served by Orland School District 135, Kirby School District 140, and Central Consolidated 146, feeding Lincoln-Way 210 and Consolidated HSD 230.
