Free Admission Days For 10 Top Illinois Attractions

There are so many great attractions in Illinois but it's hard to see them all because everything has gotten so expensive so here's a list of free days for some of the best places.

10 Top Illinois Attractions With Free Days

# 1 Adler Planentarium - Chicago

I've only been there a couple of times and it's been a while but I remember having a lot of fun.

• Wednesdays 4 pm to 10 pm (Illinois residents).

# 2 Field Museum - Chicago

I've taken advantage of the free days there. They used to do them on Sundays and sometimes I would stop in before Bears games because it's right next to Soldier Field.

• Wednesdays (Illinois residents).

# 3 Lincoln Park Zoo - Chicago

I would say it's my favorite zoo and I have so many great memories.

• Every day for everyone.

# 4 Art Institute of Chicago - Chicago

Even if you're not big into art, it's still an amazing place to visit.

• Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays (Illinois residents).

# 5 Chicago Children's Museum - Chicago

We would take our daughter there all the time when she was young. I highly recommend going if you've got children.

• Last Thursday of each month.

# 6 Museum of Science and Industry - Chicago

I was just there a couple of weeks ago for their annual "Christmas From Around The World." It's a family tradition that I look forward to every year.

• They haven't officially announced them yet but don't worry there will be several opportunities throughout the year. I suggest following them on social media for when they give out the information.

# 8 Chicago Botanic Garden - Glencoe

It's a very unique, calming, and beautiful place to visit.
