Chicago Theatre Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the entrance of the Chicago Theatre and start this guided tour of the most famous theater in Chicago and one of the most significant in the United States.

The Chicago Theatre was inaugurated in 1921, featuring an elegant style inspired by the Royal Chapel of Versailles. Its stalls reach seven floors high, accommodating 3,600 people.

After four decades of prominence, the theater faced a crisis in the late 1970s, transforming into a degraded cinema. It was saved from demolition in 1986 and reopened with a concert by Frank Sinatra.

Since then, the Theatre has hosted artists including Alicia Keys, Dolly Parton, Prince, Oasis, and Van Morrison.

During the Chicago Theatre tour, we'll learn about its history from a professional guide while exploring the elegant main hall, climbing the luxurious staircase, and more. You’ll be surprised by the size and acoustics of the auditorium.

We'll also visit the Theatre's dressing rooms and the same stage where Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin have performed.

Temporary Closure

At times, some areas of the Chicago Theatre may be restricted during the tour due to ongoing shows.
