Sitting along Lake Michigan just north of downtown, Lincoln Park is home to bustling corridors, peaceful parks and historic tree-lined brick row houses. It also has a diverse arts and entertainment scene, with a plethora of theaters and live music. From the natural outdoor beauty to unique shops and local breweries, Lincoln Park has it all covered.
Live music venue with a historic past.
One of the oldest zoos in the US offering free admission daily.

Long before it was a music venue, the building that now hosts Lincoln Hall rose to fame when FBI snipers took over the rooftop to prevent mobster John Dillinger from escaping the nearby Biograph Theatre the night he was killed. These days, the happenings at Lincoln Hall are a lot less dramatic but definitely not any less exciting. On any given night you can catch a variety of music, from hip hop to folk to rock. While it's much bigger than its sister venue Schubas, it still retains that same feeling of intimacy. So grab a beer, settle in on the main floor or balcony and enjoy the show.
