It’s quite hard to believe that we’ve already made it through June, and July is officially here. While there are numerous activities to choose from, there’s nothing quite like a free option.
Between free museum days and free concerts available, we know you have plenty of choices; however, our favorite is a free movie in the Park.
So, if you’re like us, pack a picnic with your favorite snacks and drinks, bring a cozy blanket, and make sure to head to an outdoor movie screening this summer.
Here is the schedule for Movies in the Park in Chicago for July.
