Lollapalooza, Taste of Chicago and all other summer festivals are officially canceled.

Mayor Lightfoot is reopening the Lakefront Trail on June 22. After being shut down in late March, the Lakefront Trail will reopen for exercise and transit.

Chicago bars and breweries can open outdoor seating beginning June 17
Local watering holes get the green light to reopen patios and rooftops this week.

The Chicago Riverwalk is open again, with dedicated hours for recreation and dining. Beginning on Friday, June 12, the Riverwalk will be open to the public from 5am to 9pm daily, with face coverings required at all times. In an effort to reduce crowding and encourage social distancing, the city is implementing dedicated hours on the Riverwalk for recreation and concessions. From 5am to 10am, guests are welcome to run, jog, walk and bike along the path between Lake Shore Drive and Lake Street. The Riverwalk will briefly close at 10am for cleaning and then reopen from 11am to 9pm to allow access to businesses and "passive recreation areas" along the path. From 11am to 9pm, the Riverwalk will only be accessible through certain entrances, corresponding to businesses and areas along the path (see a complete list and map below). Attendants will stand at each entrance to the Riverwalk, confirming reservations at restaurants (a reservation is required to dine on the Riverwalk) and ensuring that new capacity limits are not exceeded. It's unclear how access to the "passive recreation areas" will be handled, but it seems that entrance will be prioritized for individuals with reservations at Riverwalk restaurants.
