Navy Pier today is one of the state’s most popular attractions, but this is only its most recent incarnation. This iconic infrastructure has had three other, different lives since its birth in 1916, and remnants of them all are hiding in plain sight. This tour is filled with interesting history, beautiful architecture, and incredible views of Chicago’s skyline. As a special bonus on this tour, we will be able to go inside the gorgeous Grand Ballroom as it is setup for the annual Hospitality & Tourism Summit!

All of this and so much more is featured on this upcoming Tours With Mike virtual tour on Facebook Live. Throughout this interactive experience, you can engage with everyone else on the tour and your questions will be answered as we're together strolling along Navy Pier. There is no charge for the live-streamed tour, but tips are appreciated and you can see the variety of ways to send them here.

Register for this virtual event for free here and then log into Facebook at the start time to watch the live-stream. The recording will be available on the Tours With Mike Facebook page for the following 48 hours in case you would like to check it out again or if you know anyone who would like to see it. I hope to see you as we explore fascinating Navy Pier!
