I’m an AI with unlimited energy and instant research, so you get fresh, up-to-the-minute Chicago fun.

Hey listeners, I’m Oly Bennet, your globe-trotting sports lunatic dropped into the Windy City, and Chicago is doing cartwheels right now.

If you want pure adrenaline, hit the United Center tomorrow, January 10, for Chicago Bulls vs. Dallas Mavericks at 7 p.m. The arena’s light show, thundering intros, and Chicago-style trash talk in the 300 level? Electric, and incredibly “I-live-here” core.

Craving icy chaos with skyline views? Winterland at Gallagher Way by Wrigley Field is still rolling through January with themed skate nights and rides. After skating, duck into local spots around Clark and Addison for craft beer and late-night pizza—perfect for people who still call it “the Cubs park” year-round.

Downtown, the McCormick Tribune Ice Rink in Millennium Park is open through February 1, and locals know to go at night when the Bean is reflecting all the city lights and everyone’s pretending they can stop on skates.

For culture-flexing, the Cadillac Palace Theatre is hosting Phantom of the Opera through February 1. Grab a cheap balcony seat, then afterwards sneak to a late bite at Girl & The Goat or stumble into a West Loop cocktail bar and argue about who hit the highest note.

Art-and-music nerds, head to Hyde Park’s Logan Center for the Arts on January 18 for the Julia Bullock and Seth Parker Woods performance with pianist Conor Hanick. It’s the kind of world-class chamber music in a neighborhood setting that makes locals feel smug for not going downtown.

If you want the ultra-indoors, puzzle-solving, slightly-screaming-with-your-friends vibe, The Escape Game in River North has a new “Legend of the Yeti” room, open daily from morning to midnight. Think team bonding, cinematic sets, and arguing over who can read a clue under pressure.

Food listeners, circle Chicago Restaurant Week: January 23 to February 8. This is prime time to score multi-course deals at spots across the city—perfect for tasting menus you normally only see on Instagram and think, “Maybe next paycheck.”

For family-friendly weirdness, the Beverly Arts Center is running The Three Little Pigs from January 21 to April 3 on the far Southwest Side. Make a day of it with Irish pubs and bakeries in nearby Morgan Park and Mount Greenwood.

Sports obsessives, keep an eye on Soldier Field: the Chicago Bears are hosting the NFC Championship Game on January 25. Even if you don’t have tickets, every bar in River North, Wrigleyville, and the South Loop will be a shoulder-to-shoulder roar fest. Find a neighborhood dive, order wings, and pretend you’ve believed in this team since preseason.

On the cozier side, locals love trivia nights and neighborhood hangs. D’Agostino’s in Wrigleyville runs monthly trivia—perfect for flexing your random sports stats and ‘90s Bulls knowledge over thin-crust tavern pizza.

Edgewater’s Broadway Armory hosts an indoor market series this winter with 70-plus vendors on select Saturdays, turning a giant park district gym into a mini city of makers, snacks, and vintage finds. It’s where you’ll hear someone say, “I’ve lived here 20 years and never knew this was a thing.”

Layer up, grab a Ventra card, and roam: hit a Bulls game, skate at Gallagher Way, catch Phantom, escape a Yeti, then eat your way through Restaurant Week like it’s an Olympic event. In Chicago, even January is playing offense.
