About Chicago.life

Chicago.life is an independent guide to Chicago, Illinois, for the people who live here and the people visiting. It covers the city's neighborhoods, things to do, food and drink, events and weather, and it stays evergreen: guides you can use any week of the year, not news.

• Things to do: Millennium Park, Art Institute of Chicago, Field Museum, Navy Pier, Lincoln Park Zoo, Griffin Museum of Science and Industry, plus what's on this week.

• Weather: today's forecast and alerts from the National Weather Service.

How we check our facts

Every place, number and date in our guides comes from a primary source we opened: the venue's own site, the official event site or a government page. Each fact is checked again by a second, independent reviewer before it is published, and anything that cannot be verified is left out.

Who runs Chicago.life
