Suggestions for Arts and Entertainment near Chicago

Shycu • October 14, 2017Wish it was closer to home. Beautiful venue with great sound. Try balcony seating if you want comfy seats and a private bar with high top tables.

Allison K. • July 7, 2015Great venue for a wedding or private event! The views of the city are spectacular

Sharon T. • November 23, 2015Love the CSO! Definitely one of the better orchestras in the US. The space was beautiful and cozy as well.

Manuel D. • April 22, 2013Do yourself a big favour and use the app! Works fantastic!

Doug V. • April 24, 2014Loved the movie and the interior of the Theater is wonderful! Sit upfront the screen isn't that big.

Josh S. • October 2, 2017Fantastic for dates! It seems like there’s a different festival every week and it’s close to the beautiful Maggie Daley park. Highly recommend.

Kristopher W. • December 10, 2014Beautiful but needs some TLC. Sound is exquisite. Comfy seats. Just a fabulous place to see a show.

Yani L. • October 13, 2018The play was amazing and the staff is very friendly. Would love to go again someday

Chris R. • May 8, 2015It's a selfie magnet! Fun to visit and do a bit of people watching. Great photog vantage point.

Kristopher W. • December 8, 2014We've been here 4.5 hours and barely scratched the surface. An absolutely excellent museum - probably the best I've been to. Only the Newseum in DC comes close. Don't miss this if you are in Chicago

Ninah R. • December 11, 2017Nice theater. A little on the smaller side which is nice. Coat check is about $2. Snacks, drinks, wine/champagne available

Kirstie C. • April 28, 2017Amazing show!! Such a cool venue and the ETC stage was very intimate. Will definitely return!

Dane D. • August 17, 2022Great vibes. Cool location. Cool vendors. Good sound too! Come see a show here.

Trina Beana • February 29, 2012Everything about this place is fantastic. Take at least 2 days to see everything.

FJ B. • December 30, 2015Two words - baby gorillas!

Flavorpill C. • March 13, 2011Catch forgotten gems, art-house experiments, local features & fascinating docs. You’d be tempted to call them populist, but the intelligent line-ups never pander.

Pete R. • June 5, 2018Great Space and an awesome beer list. Perfect crowd!

Mike • October 9, 2015Choose seats that are higher up and centered over seats that are lower and towards the back or sides. Lots of obstructive views here

Amanda J. • March 25, 2011Working is amazing ! Students can see the show daily at $25 with an ID! See That Building

Becca O. • July 23, 2011Take Tony Porter's drawing class. Great instructor. It's a great place for those with little experience to explore their creative curiosity.

L H. • August 16, 2011Super weird original art and art prints, cute t-shirts, lots of toys, everything a great mix of kawaii + disturbing. Cool store for adults and kids both.

Dave N. • July 10, 2011It's all good! Always great music. I try to get there every time I'm in Chicago!
