Classic Cinemas Tivoli Theatre - Experience our fully-reclining, heated, luxury seating in our Willis auditorium

Classic Cinemas Tivoli Theatre is just that...classic! I have to admit I'm a bit bias as I get a…read morehuge wave of nostalgia walking through those doors but I think even without that, it is just a great theatre. Sure, there's not the huge selection of movies that AMC theatres have, but they are so good at getting new highly anticipated flicks. Plus, they have the After Hours Film Society that brings in a wider variety of films for the most dedicated viewers. Lastly, you absolutely cannot beat the prices of tickets and snacks. There are two screens that rotate movies. The seats don't recline with a foot rest, but they are so much better since the remodel. Much more spacious and comfortable. The main theatre also has a stage which expands opportunity at this venue for live performances. Such a great locally owned well-run business.

Today's presentation will broadcast on WGN Radio on a date and time to be announced in November announcement will be made at WGN Radio's website when it will air if you like to hear it again, or had friends that missed the show today. While they are a movie theater, they do at time live stage performances like todays 10 am show with John Williams and Clay Jenkinson, that us dome in their bigger auditorium, and where the other one must be. And of course the screen behind the curtain. I have never been here for a movie showing, and do think I will.

Morton Arb! Oh my, one of my favorite places! No matter how many times you visit here, you are sure…read moreto find something new or different every single time. The seasons bring so many beautiful changes to this place, but the Arb is absolutely phenomenal at continuously expanding its attractions. From rotating art/sculptures, hosting gorgeous weddings, to their children's area, live music, dog days, pop up events, art shows and an awesome gift shop. Even the most anti-outdoors person would enjoy coming here. Parking is ample and the park is huge, spanning 1,700 acres! It took me many years realize how fortunate I was to grow up with this sensational outdoor museum within minutes from my home, after visiting many similar gardens, I can confirm the Arb is certainly a must see experience for nature lovers. There is some amazing history about this place as well. J. Sterling Morton created Arbor Day and he was the father of Joy Morton (founded Morton Salt). Joy made moneeyyyyy and decided he was going to buy land and basically collect trees from all over the world. In 1922, The Morton Arboretum was established with 175 acres and it's SO COOL this place still exists and has blown up to 1,700 acres. BTW there is still a cemetery on site honoring the Morton family.

It's been a very long time since I've been to this place since I was little and it's still as…read morebeautiful as I remember when I was little girl When you drive up to the cashier in your car, you can pay one dollar with your WIC card if not general admission is $27 The service is very nice and very quick

Beautiful park in Lombard with incredible views of lilacs and tulips. This is very well maintained…read moreand has a large variety of different colored flowers. Parking was a little challenging during my late April visit with all the beautiful flowers in bloom, but it was well worth parking a few blocks away and walking over for the experience. Scattered throughout the park are plenty of benches, a scenic lookout area, iron deer statue, and more. A stroll around the park is super relaxing here since you're surrounded by plenty of colors and pleasant aromas. Definitely a must visit for any tulip or lilac lover. Worth a special trip due to the quality of the park and the beautiful views.

And we had great sunny warm weather in mid-May 2026. But because of the record April showers peak bloom time was 1-2 weeks earlier this year. Watch their Instagram for updates! This park was designed by Jens Jensen (Central Park, Humboldt Park), and it shows from its winding pathways to separate elevated area that proved a perfect picture perch for local prom kids. Ample signage of lilacs, flowers and trees helps with ID. You gotta visit once in your lifetime during peak lilac bloom, and its worthy of strolls all year round.

One of the nicer history museums in the area, this was a surprise in many different ways. Parking…read moreis plentiful, this is open most days of the week, and the amount and quality of the exhibits is definitely above average. Many times it's difficult to take friends to historical museums in the area because they're only open a few days of the week, or the majority of areas are closed except for a select few days where tours are offered. The exhibits here did a great job of showing local Elmhurst history -- different from many of the historical homes, or generic artifacts you might find elsewhere. I was quite surprised at the very high quality signage, professionally produced videos, excellent lighting, and variety of exhibits that they managed to fit into the space. Even for those who are not from the Elmhurst area, they can appreciate the quality of the museum itself. Overall, well worth a visit if you're a local history lover or if you're looking for something different and educational to do after having a meal or enjoying an experience nearby.

My husband and I were in Elmhurst looking for something fun to do and the Elmhurst History Museum…read morefit that bill. This is a really neat museum. While detailing the past, it has some current innovations like a large movie screen where you can select different videos on the village's history to watch. The museum features many artifacts from the permanent collection as well as a timeline of village history. While we were there the rotating exhibits were being changed. For a fun day with history, I highly recommend the Elmhurst History Museum!
