Bring the Kids To See “Sesame Street Live! Make Your Magic” in Chicago
Fun for the Whole Family
If you're trying to plan a fun event for the whole family, you might be thinking Disney (either California or Florida) or some other always-sunny location. Here’s an offbeat idea: Chicago.
There is always something to do that will entertain everyone, from the youngest kids to the oldest family members. Shows, events, countless shops, gourmet restaurants, and stunning architecture will keep everyone entertained. Some of the biggest names and events make stops in the Windy City.
If you've got children, consider making all of their dreams come true by taking them to one of the many Sesame Street shows in Chicago where they can see all their beloved characters come to life before their very own eyes.
Attending Sesame Street Live! Make Your Magic
Sesame Street Live! Make Your Magic is coming to the Rosemont Theatre from October 11 –13. Big Bird, Elmo, Grover, and all their friends take the stage to teach children the importance of achieving anything you set your mind to.
In the show, Elmo learns that magic is everywhere especially when you believe in yourself. Not only is the show entertaining, with super tunes catchy. It also teaches valuable lessons about following your dreams no matter what.
The shows take place at 10:30 AM., 2:30 PM, and 6:00 PM, with the option of additional meet and greet passes available. Tickets start at $15 each and go up from there depending on how close to the stage you choose to sit. Children under 1 year old are free, and children under the age of 14 are allowed to dress up in costumes to enhance their experience.
