Activity itinerary

McCormick Place
  • 5m
  • Admission ticket not included
As early as 1927, Robert R. McCormick, a prominent member of the McCormick family of McCormick Reaper/International Harvester fame, and publisher of the Chicago Tribune, championed a purpose-built lakeside convention centre for Chicago. In 1958, ground was broken for a USD 35 million facility that opened in November 1960, and was named after McCormick, who died in 1955.The 1960 exposition hall was destroyed in a spectacular fire on January 16, 1967, despite being thought fireproof by virtue of its steel and concrete construction.At the time of the fire, the building contained highly combustible exhibits, several hydrants were shut off, and there were no sprinklers on the main floor where the fire started. Thus the fire spread quickly and destructively, McCormick Place is the largest convention centre in North America. It consists of four interconnected buildings and one indoor arena
Soldier Field
  • 1m
  • Admission ticket not included
Opened in 1924 and reconstructed in 2003, the stadium has served as the home of the Chicago Bears of the National Football League (NFL) since 1971, as well as Chicago Fire FC of Major League Football The stadium's interior was rebuilt as part of a major renovation project in 2002, which modernised the facility but lowered its seating capacity, eventually causing it to be delisted as a National Historic Landmark in 2006
Adler Planetarium
  • 1m
  • Admission ticket not included
The Adler Planetarium is a public museum in Chicago, Illinois, dedicated to astronomy and astrophysics. It was founded in 1930 by local businessman Max Adler.The Adler has three theatres, space science exhibitions, including the Gemini 12 space capsule, and a collection of antique scientific instruments and print materials.

Navy Pier
  • 2m
  • Admission ticket not included
In 1941, during World War II, the pier became a training centre for the United States Navy; about 10,000 people worked, trained and lived there. The pier contained a 2,500-seat theatre, gym, 12-chair barber shop, tailor, cobbler shops, soft drink fountain and a vast kitchen and hospital.
John Hancock Center
  • 4m
  • Admission ticket not included
The John Hancock Centre is a 100-story, 1,128-foot supertall skyscraper. Located in the Magnificent Mile district, its name was changed to 875 North Michigan Avenue in 2018. Despite this, the building is still colloquially called the John Hancock Centre The skyscraper was constructed under the supervision of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill (SOM),[7] by SOM partners, Peruvian-US chief designer Bruce Graham and Bangladeshi-US structural engineer Fazlur Rahman Khan. When the building topped out on May 6, 1968, it was the second-tallest building in the world after the Empire State Building, and the tallest in Chicago. It is currently the fifth-tallest building in Chicago and the thirteenth-tallest in the United States, behind the Aon Centre in Chicago which you will see later on.
