This family entertainment complex on Lake Michigan offers daylong fun with more than 50 acres of parks and gardens, first-rate shopping, restaurants and exciting attractions. Ride the 15-story Ferris wheel, watch world-class performers at the Skyline Stage, and tour three floors of interactive fun at the Chicago Children's Museum. For some culture amongst the commercialism, check out the Chicago Shakespeare Theater. During the summer, free entertainment is available on Dock Street. During the winter, rent skates and take a spin on the open-air rink. Credit cards are accepted, but types vary by the establishment. The pier opens daily at 10pm.
