Chicago’s museums are rolling out the red carpet for Illinois residents with a lineup of free admission days in 2025. From the cosmic wonders at Adler Planetarium to the artistic treasures at the Art Institute, there's a wealth of culture waiting to be explored without spending a dime. Plan your visits and dive into the city's rich tapestry of history, art, and science.
LOLLAPALOOZA PRESENTS:
KEEP THAT LOLLA ENERGY ROLLING
If you thought Lollapalooza’s lineup was stacked, wait until you see their Aftershows presented by Hollister. Dominic Fike, Orla Gartland, and Ocean Alley are just a few of the acts keeping the energy up long after dark.*
ON THE WAY
⛳️ LIV Golf
Shotgun starts. No cuts. Constant leaderboard shifts. Bolingbrook Golf Club hosts three rounds of elite golf in a setting that blends fierce competition with live music, local food, and full fan access. Secure your LIV Golf Chicago tickets for an experience on and off the course.*
🏎️ The Tiny Woodie 220 Mini Car Race
Sunday at Woodie’s Flat
Can’t make the real thing? Sometime’s smaller is better. Get the thrill of NASCAR at The Tiny Woodie 220 Mini Car Race. It’s speed, shrink-wrapped. Losers get called out. Winners? Crowned legends (of at least 1:64 scale).
🏝️ Love Island Watch Party
Tuesdays at Bar La Rue (8PM)
Gossip, glitter, and gaudy flirtation—yes, we're watching. Come for the chaos, stay for the cocktails at the weekly Love Island Watch Party. It's hotter than the fire pit and 10x more fun with other romantically delusional strangers.
🎻 Jeff Goldblum & The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra
Tomorrow at The Chicago Theatre (7:30PM)
Jazz hands meet Jurassic charisma. Jeff Goldblum tickles ivories and expectations with a side of delightful chaos. It’s music, yes—but it’s also performance art, dad jokes, and probably at least one unplanned existential tangent. Snag a ticket!
🎨 Love Deluxe: Art Show & Day Party
Sunday at Hoste
Love Deluxe makes the start of Hoste’s new artist-in-residency series. Celebrate the artistry of Sade with a night of artwork and dancing.
