Plan Your Visit

Welcome to Chicago!

To assist you in navigating the city, we have developed a resource guide to highlight different attractions that you can check out during your weekend here. We can also share the Ramblin' Around Guide which was created by the Department of Civic Engagement, the Rogers Park Business Alliance, and Edgewater Chamber of Commerce.  This guide has information on local restaurants and other businesses.  

While our intent is to share accurate and updated information, Loyola University Chicago does not take responsibility for experiences or changes that may occur. We will do our best to update this document to ensure an exciting stay. With 77 diverse and distinguishable neighborhoods, Chicago can provide a unique experience for each visitor. Have fun exploring the vibrant and fascinating city of Chicago!

Parking

We have two parking garages at the Lake Shore Campus that Family Weekend guests are welcome to use during Family Weekend at no charge. The gates for both garages will be up during Family Weekend. Parking is not allowed from 2am - 5am unless guests visit the Campus Transportation offices on the first floor of the main parking structure between 8am and 2pm on Saturday to purchase an overnight pass for $7 (supplies are very limited).

Please note that space in the garage is limited so people are encouraged to use public transportation when possible. There is street parking in the neighborhood as well.
