Discover 10 iconic and obscure ties to movies above and below street level in downtown Chicago
About this Event

Discover 10 iconic—and obscure!—ties to movies while descending below street level in Chicago's Pedway.

Step into the highlights of Chicago's cinema history on this 2-hour guided walking tour! On the 1.25-mile route, you will venture through downtown and underground in Chicago's Pedway, discovering iconic film locations, lesser-known movie subjects, and landmarks like the Chicago Cultural Center, Millennium Station, and "Goth Target" (as TikTok calls it).

Like all of our walking tours, this one includes multimedia enhancements throughout and is led by a Ph.D. in film. Perfect for film enthusiasts or those seeking a unique city adventure!
