4TH OF JULY WEEKEND IN THE CITY!
Every weekend offers so much but there is no better weekend to be in Chicago than 4th of July weekend.
ATTEND THE NASCAR RACE WEEKEND…
This Fourth of July weekend, don’t miss a historic racing event coming to Chicago’s scenic lakefront. For the first time ever, the sights, sounds, and speed of NASCAR are coming to the streets of downtown Chicago for NASCAR Chicago Street Race Weekend on July 1 and 2. The event will also include live music from The Chainsmokers, Miranda Lambert, and more.
SEE SOME SPECTACULAR FIREWORKS…
Head to the lake to catch the waterfront fireworks display during the Fourth of July weekend in Chicago. Navy Pier, an iconic Chicago destination, will be putting on the show on Saturday, July 1 as part of their free summer fireworks series.
You can catch the display from Navy Pier or along the nearby lakefront, including beaches, rooftop bars, and parks. You can also hop on one of the many boat cruises offering a front-row seat to the action.
CATCH A BASEBALL GAME…
There’s no better place to spend a summer afternoon than the ballpark. Chicago’s iconic Chicago Cubs will play two home games over the holiday weekend at Wrigley Field on July 1 – 2. Their ballpark is one of the oldest and most iconic stadiums in the country — definitely a bucket list experience for any baseball fan. Afterward, spend some time exploring lively Wrigleyville.
And we aren’t short changing the White Sox! You can catch their holiday game on the 4th where you’re sure to see some fireworks! Experience a game like no other at Guaranteed Rate Field for a night game sure to please! It’s all about the fan experience! There’s a slew of things to see and do, including visiting the two-tiered CIBC Fan Deck for a panoramic view of the playing field; a stop at the Goose Island Craft Kave, a two-tiered, open-air craft brew oasis located on field level near Gate 2; and so much more!
