What am I missing? Weekend of 9/12 in the city...

There must be something HUGE going on in the city the weekend of 9/12 but I can't figure out what it is.  It isn't the marathon... that is 10/10

 I tried booking a room and I can only find TWO hotels in the loop and mag mile areas that have a room available.  One is the pennisula ($1200/night!) and the other is the Westin ($400/night!)  Everything else is showing sold out.

Can anybody clue me in here?

  • Chicago Half-Marathon is that Sunday.

    Celtic Fest in Grant Park

    U2 at Soldier Field

    That plus both baseball teams are in town and the typical conventions . . .

  • yea and if people are taking a long week out of it oprah is shooting mon tues and wednesday and letting anyone in. so maybe people are staying through the weekend? you could stay a little further out. Gold Coast is super close to mag mile and might be cheaper? hotel indigo is one and i know there are some others around there you could check out
  • The Chicago Half Marathon is on Sunday.  And there's also the Wine Festival this weekend. Big Smile
