Police said the cause of the collapse was under investigation.
Photos from the scene showed the large tent partially collapsed and partially still standing next to many tables set up with chairs.
The parking lot was outside a Cintas Uniform Services store in Bedford Park, about 15 miles southwest of Chicago. A message seeking comment was left for a Cintas spokesperson.
