ABOUT  US

Weekends in Chicago is a curated city guide and creative platform built on over 30 years of experience producing and shaping live events across Chicago. Rooted in a deep understanding of the city’s cultural landscape, we highlight the moments, places, and experiences that define what it means to go out in Chicago.

From large-scale festivals to intimate neighborhood activations, our perspective is informed by decades of hands-on production and industry insight. We don’t just share what’s happening—we understand how it’s built, why it matters, and where to be. Weekends in Chicago exists to connect audiences to the city’s most relevant experiences while helping brands and partners show up in meaningful ways.

Behind-the-Scenes Glimpses

With deep roots in Chicago’s event landscape, Weekends in Chicago works closely with leading production companies like Bash Creates to stay connected to the city’s most meaningful experiences. This behind-the-scenes access allows us to go beyond surface-level recommendations—offering insight into what’s worth showing up for and why it matters.

Through ongoing partnerships with brands, venues, and local communities, we help bring experiences to life across Chicago’s neighborhoods—bridging the gap between culture, audience, and execution.
