No foolin’ here – United Center’s has one fantastic line-up of Grammy Award®-winning Artists this April.
April 1 – EARTH, WIND & FIRE and CHICAGO
Fans across the country will be able to not one, but TWO Grammy Award-winning and multi-platinum selling groups live at the United Center! Two of the most successful and critically-acclaimed bands Earth, Wind & Fire and Chicago have come together for their Heart and Soul Tour 2.0.
“I’m excited to be starting another leg of the Heart and Soul tour,” said Lee Loughnane of Chicago. “Both bands are playing great and when we play together, the show rises to another level. Come see the concert. You won’t be disappointed.”
April 4 & 8, 2016 – DAVID GILMOUR
English musician, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist David Gilmour’s first North American tour in ten years is making a stop in Chicago for two nights only! This former Pink Floyd member’s “Live 2016” appearances will be his first live concert dates since the “On An Island” tour in 2006. Get ready to rock to his new solo album “Rattle That Lock!”
April – RIHANNA
Global superstar, Grammy Award®-winner and multi-platinum selling artist, Rihanna, is bringing her THE ANTI WORLD TOUR to Chicago with special guest Travis Scott! Having sold 54 million albums and 210 million digital tracks worldwide, there’s no doubt that tickets will go fast for the one-night-only concert.
You know what goes great with Grammy Award®-winning Artists? Some good grub, of course! We’ll see you at Billy Goat Tavern on Madison after the show.
For 52 years, Chicago’s favorite haunt hasn’t been on Michigan Avenue, it’s been under it!
On March 4th, 1964 Billy Goat Sianis moved his tavern to the current subterranean Michigan Avenue location. The original Billy Goat was located on Madison Street, across from the Chicago Stadium. Thanks to the large following of newspaper men who were regulars at the Billy Goat, it was only natural that the new location be situated between the Tribune and Sun-Times buildings.
Lucky for you, Chicago is THE place to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. And if your luck couldn’t get any better, there are multiple Billy Goat Taverns to visit when your hunger hits.
Can’t miss events on Saturday, March 12!
DYEING OF THE CHICAGO RIVER
It wouldn’t be St. Pat’s Day in Chicago without the annual dyeing of the Chicago River. Best views can be seen along the Michigan Avenue bridge, but be sure to arrive early to claim a good spot! Once the river transforms into Chicago’s very own Emerald Isle, the Chicago St. Patrick’s Day Parade will commence.
THE CHICAGO ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARADE
After the Chicago River is dyed green, the sound of bagpipes, Irish dancers and drum corps will fill the air in Chicago’s annual Irish parade along Columbus Drive. NAVY SHORELINE SIGHTSEEING ST. PATRICK’S DAY CRUISE
Enjoy an Irish buffet filled with corned beef and cabbage, indulge in a full service cash bar, and tap your toes to live Irish music – all while cruising along the gloriously green Chicago River! Highly popular, completely festive, and a great way to celebrate St. Pat’s Day.
We’ll be serving green beer and great borgers. Our Michigan Ave. location is just blocks from the Chicago River, and don’t forget to stop by our Navy Pier location after the Sightseeing Cruise. Slainte!
