For music and dance lovers, Chicago SummerDance is in full swing through early September, delivering free outdoor events all across city parks. This weekend, the Maxwell Street Market transforms into an open-air dance floor with professional instructors teaching country line dancing, cumbia, jitterbug, and swing. On July 19, head to Pullman Park for a mix of Bhangra, merengue, footwork, and swing. These vibrant gatherings are free, inviting everyone to join in the rhythm under the open sky.
Sports enthusiasts can look forward to a week packed with live action. The Chicago Cubs square off against the Kansas City Royals at Wrigley Field July 21 through July 23, offering classic summer baseball vibes. For iconic cross-town rivalry, the White Sox face the Cubs at Guaranteed Rate Field on July 25. Looking ahead, Soldier Field welcomes the Premier League Summer Series on July 30, a rare chance to see world-class soccer without a passport.
If you want to soak up Chicago’s legendary skyline, book a spot on an architecture river cruise departing from the Magnificent Mile. Both the 45-minute tour and the more in-depth Chicago Architecture Center River Cruise receive raves for their informative guides and stunning views of the city’s celebrated towers and bridges. For a twist on local lore, try the Chicago Crime and Mob Bus Tour, where you’ll hear true stories of the city’s prohibition-era gangsters and see sites tied to Al Capone and John Dillinger.
For those who crave the outdoors, Block Club Chicago recommends exploring the city’s 13 best bike trails, winding through leafy parks, rail trails, and quiet neighborhoods. If you’d prefer to relax, Chicago’s rooftop bars and patios are perfect for drinks or bites with skyline views—choose from more than 70 open-air rooftops and over 200 patios mapped out for summer seekers. For a sweet treat, there are over 100 ice cream spots, from classic scoops to Italian ice and popsicles.
Want to immerse yourself in history? The Chicago History Museum hosts unique walking and bike tours all summer—this Sunday, July 13, discover the stories of the Near West Side and West Loop, tracing the area’s evolution from the 1800s to today.
Hidden gems await as well. Chicago’s late-night food scene is legendary; locals turn to favorites recommended by Block Club Chicago after concerts and parties for comfort food. On Unplug Illinois Day, stretch your legs and join locals for outdoor yoga, pilates, cardio, or Zumba on city lawns, celebrating fresh air and community connection.
Finally, don’t miss Grant Park’s free Millennium Park Summer Music Series, offering open-air concerts by world-class musicians in a lakeside setting. Whether you’re dancing under the stars, catching a baseball game at a historic stadium, cruising the river, or sampling global street food, Chicago’s summer spirit is waiting for you.
