Concerts in Chicago are big year-round, but when it comes to Summer, the only problem you'll have is making a decision on what to see. In addition to off the charts Music Festivals like Lollapalooza and RiotFest, Chicago hosts chart numbing acts at venues all over the city, from the United Center to Wrigley Field. But to get to a concert, you've gotta plan for a concert, book your tickets early, and book a room while you're at it. After this much fun you won't want to stray far before calling it a night!
