Chicago's longest running lakefront music festival is back again this year with a jam-packed schedule. The City of Chicago has partnered with Millennium Garages to provide fest goers the most convenient parking with thousands of spaces for jazz fans under Millennium and Grant Park.

For more information on the festival, visit here.

Football fans are you tired of the parking situation at the stadium? Are you looking for a cheaper and more convenient football parking option? Millennium Garages is once again offering fans season long parking passes for home games. Best of all, a portion of the proceeds will go to support Bears Care. Shuttles to and from the stadium will run out of East Monroe & Millennium Park Garages for each home game. Single game parking also includes access to the shuttle.

Stadium shuttles will be picking up and dropping off parkers at two locations:

- Millennium Park Garage parkers will be picked up and dropped off at lower Randolph St. (north end elevators level 2.5).

- East Monroe Garage parkers will be picked up and dropped off at upper Randolph St. (take escalator to street level).

To purchase a season parking pass contact Kim Hyla at 312-616-1543, or khyla@lazparking.com.

The stadium shuttles are for parkers only - no exceptions.

Millennium Garages is proud to unveil its “Plug & Go” stations– a new plug-in charging service for patrons with electronic cars. To launch the new service, Millennium Garages is providing free electricity to all electric car drivers who park for a limited time.

The two stations can be found in the Millennium Park garage immediately upon entering. The spaces are painted green and identified by the “Plug & Go” logo signs (above). To charge, simply follow the instructions on the charging unit.
