Music lovers should head to Navy Pier for Live on the Lake, the free summer concert series happening every weekend in the Beer Garden. The lineup features some of Chicago’s best bands and guest acts from across the country. Pair this with lakeside views and cool breezes and it’s a classic Chicago summer experience according to Navy Pier.
For art enthusiasts, Millennium Park offers not just the iconic Cloud Gate (“The Bean”) but currently spotlights Franz West’s monumental sculptures, set in the park’s beautiful open-air landscape. This outdoor art installation is a must-see for those who appreciate large-scale, thought-provoking works. The Magnificent Mile also boasts a brand new interactive art experience called The Iceberg Trail along Michigan Avenue—a summer-only, immersive public art walk with glowing icebergs, welcoming both kids and adults.
Sports fans are in luck. Today, the White Sox host the Cleveland Guardians at Guaranteed Rate Field, and later this month, the city’s rivalry heats up with the White Sox facing the Cubs on July 26 and 27. For basketball excitement, July 27 brings a historic WNBA matchup between the Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever at the United Center—the first time women’s basketball takes over this iconic venue. Expect record-setting crowds and electric energy with stars like Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark taking the court, according to the United Center.
If you’re craving unusual fun, book a table at Teatro Zinzanni. Located in the Spiegeltent in the Cambria Hotel, their “Love, Chaos & Dinner” show delivers an unforgettable blend of cirque, cabaret, comedy, and gourmet dining—all in one wacky evening.
Hidden gems abound in the city too. Wolff’s Flea Market, now in its 34th season at Allstate Arena every Sunday through October, showcases a vibrant mix of antiques, collectibles, street food, and local finds. It’s beloved by locals for its quirky treasures and lively atmosphere.
For those who cherish nature, the Shedd Aquarium provides interactive encounters like the Sea Otter Experience and Shark Feeding Tour nearly every hour during the summer. It’s a fantastic destination for all ages, with events like Plastic Free July highlighting sustainable city living, per Shedd Aquarium.
No trip is complete without a stroll along The Magnificent Mile, home to luxury shopping, flagship stores, the new Harry Potter shop, and much more. Architecture buffs should consider a Shoreline Sightseeing river cruise—Tripadvisor recommends it as one of the city’s top free and low-cost activities, offering mesmerizing views of Chicago’s skyline and a crash course in its storied architectural legacy.
Looking a bit ahead, don’t miss the Chicago Air and Water Show, the largest of its kind in the U.S., returning August 17 along North Avenue Beach. This free event features daredevil pilots, parachute teams, and naval demonstrations in a festival atmosphere that locals flock to every summer, according to the City of Chicago.
For foodies, every neighborhood brings its own flavor. From sizzling deep-dish pizza joints and the city’s historic hot dog stands to high-end steakhouses and family-run taquerias, a culinary adventure awaits at every corner.
