Long-time Chicagoans and visitors never have difficulty finding things to do in Chicago, with limitless options. From the colorful arts scene to the outdoor recreational activities, people of all lifestyles and hobby preferences can find plenty to see and experience in and around this bustling city.
Many kinds of Chicago events draw people to this city, which is the Midwestern hub for all things cultural, intellectual, and athletic. From prize-winning shows that come to the city via Broadway in Chicago and nightlife cruises on Lake Michigan to foodie night outs that celebrate the city’s culinary talents and al fresco concerts featuring all genres, Chicago plays host to some of the United States’ most engaging events.
That's just a fraction of the Chicago attractions to experience. See animals galore at the Lincoln Park Zoo; take a guided tour of the Rookery Building, one of the most historically significant buildings in Chicago; and enjoy a taping of Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me!, the hit NPR show recorded at the legendary Studebaker Theater located right downtown. If you want to experience a certain activity, Chicago has something magical in store for you.
