Best Free Things to Do in Chicago (2025)
There are many more free things to do in Chicago but these are my top free attractions for first time visitors.
1) Visit Millennium Park and The Bean
If you have seen photos of Chicago on instagram or facebook, chances are you have seen photos of Cloud Gate (nicknamed The Bean), the mirrored sculpture in Millenium Park.
The Bean is a bucket list attraction and one of the most instaworthy spots in Chicago if you want to take some selfies to remember your trip to Chicago. In addition to the Bean, other attractions at Millennium Park include the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, the Crown Fountain sculpture and Lurie Garden.
2) Maggie Daley Park
