Start off your trip by exploring Chicago's funnier side. Its comedy clubs have birthed some of today’s biggest stars. Practice your best jokes with improvisation classes at Second City, or if you’re not much of a center stage actor, check out comedy show tickets.
Discover that there’s more to the city's food scene than deep dish pizza at Taste of Chicago, and roam the streets of popular neighborhoods to find cuisine from every culture. Head north of the Loop to Avondale for fried chicken at Honey Butter Fried Chicken, or visit the trendy Wicker Park neighborhood and chill out with some tacos at Big Star.
For sports enthusiasts, join locals as they cheer on their beloved Cubs at Wrigley Field. Can’t snag tickets? Head to Cubby Bear Lounge across the street for all the action. For outdoor adventurers, the city is great for strolling, from the beautiful lakefront to the shops along Michigan Avenue. For kids, Shedd Aquarium, Adler Planetarium and Lincoln Park Zoo are just the beginning.
End your visit to the city by heading up to the 94th floor of the John Hancock building. Take in the views of the bustling downtown area and miles of coastline.
