September marks the end of the Windy City's busy summer tourism season, but that doesn't mean that events in Chicago slow down. Consider celebrating Labor Day Weekend here, as there will be lots of things to do, like the annual Taste of Polonia event or Expo Chicago. The weather tends to be enjoyed throughout the month as it's the perfect median between the hot summer and the upcoming chillier months.
For the 21st year, Chicago will be screening movies in outdoor parks during evenings around the city. It's the perfect way to social distance while still having an enjoyable, free, and memorable evening. All movies begin at dusk. Download the MyChi Parks app for movie lineups and locations.
Grab a Slice of Deep Dish Pizza
Many people travel to Chicago just for the food, and rightfully so, but you can't leave without having one of Chicago's most popular and beloved foods: deep dish pizza. Head over to Lou Malnati’s, a popular pizza spot in the Windy City. As lines are usually lengthy at this particular spot, it's suggested to go either for early lunch or for a late night stop.
