DESTINATIONS explore CHICAGO

Plenty of things to do and explore make this Midwest gem the perfect getaway.

Come winter, the Windy City takes on an entirely different (yet entirely charming) ambiance.

U.S. News & World Report names November through March as a unique time to visit the city, when a cooler breeze and less foot traffic make for a tourist-free city that you can stroll through at your leisure.

Patrons of the arts will have their pick from a slew of festivals and events, from the European-themed Christkindlmarket (Through Dec 24) to the performance-filled Sketch Comedy Festival (Jan. 7-17) to Joffrey Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker (Dec. 4-27).

Warm up with a smooth rye at the Whiskey Barbecue (Jan. 31), and stop afterward for a perfectly cooked steak at Prime & Provisions (222 N. Lasalle St.) or the creamy mac ‘n cheese at The General Restaurant & Mercantile (2528 N. California Ave.).

As Michigan Avenue beams with holiday cheer, you’ll fall in love with this city that offers the very best of the Midwest.

A club away from home.
