We know goats have tremendous appetites. But over the years, Billy Goat Tavern owner Sam Sianis has shown his appetite takes the cake. The only question we have for Sam is, “How do you stay so thin?”

January’s the perfect time to stop by Yorktown Center, shop all of the great after-Christmas sales (don’t forget to use your holiday gift cards!) and check out the latest Oscar-worthy flicks at AMC. No trip to Yorktown would ever be complete without heading up to the food court on the upper level and treating yourself to a drink and cheezborger, all while catching up on your favorite sports teams. See you there!
It’s a bit chilly to be taking your family on outdoor adventures, but don’t let that stop you from having unique state-of-the-art fun at Navy Pier’s IMAX Theatre!

Pandas: The Journey Home, An IMAX 3D Experience
Rated G

Meet all of the pandas at the center as they get ready for their new lives in various parts of the world, and learn about their fascinating habits and personalities.

Living in the Age of Airplanes, An IMAX Experience
NR
The airplane has changed our world, but do we really understand exactly how much? LIVING IN THE AGE OF AIRPLANES reminds us how profoundly this amazing invention has changed the way we do just about everything. It also renews our appreciation for the airplane and stunningly conveys the wonder and grandeur of flying. Filmed in 18 countries across all 7 continents, the film explores the countless ways the airplane affects our lives (even when we don’t fly). With a fascinating take on history, breathtaking visuals, soaring music, and a truly unique perspective, LIVING IN THE AGE OF AIRPLANES shows the airplane in a fresh light as it takes audiences on a wondrous trip around the globe.
The IMAX Theatre isn’t the ONLY 3D adventure at Navy Pier…Experience Billy Goat’s unique state-of-the-art 3D creations – a cheezborger with a side of chips, of course – just steps away from the theatre. No need for 3D glasses, all you need is your appetite!
What a great time to shop along the Magnificent Mile! Stores are filled with post-holiday deals and of end-of-season sales. And while the Christmas crowds have disappeared, the wintery cityscapes are at their very best.
