    Though it was freezing that night, it was still a lot of fun! I do believe this Jack's pop-up is…read moremore intricate than their Halloween. Lot of detail went into every part of the space. They had ice-skating, ax throwing, bump cars, carnival games, stores to buy Christmas items, a sketch artist, Santa was even there and of course tons and tons of photo ops. They had a good selection of food, soups as well as warm and cold drinks. Mullet wine was delicious and strong. They had ice-skating shows every other hour and places to warm yourself; like log fire pits as well as cabin tents that had heaters. They have various packages you can buy that is inclusive of Games food and ice-skating. You could just go for a photo opportunities as well. Everyone was very helpful and kind and I do think you get a lot for your money. This is great for the family or for date night.

    I'd never been before, so I didn't have many expectations to be honest! We went on a Wednesday…read morenight, which proved to be an excellent decision because it was actually pretty empty! It was really nice to enjoy all the attractions and the lights without having to fight people for space. It was quite easy to take photos of all the decorations too. I paid for entry and ice skating, and while I'm not much of a skater myself, I had a nice time on the rink! If you're a more distinguished skater, you might want to bring your own skates, but I have a feeling you'd be doing that anyway! The bumper cars were surprisingly funny and I had a good time figuring out the control configuration that would let me optimize rear-ending my sister as much as possible. The things they have on sale, nutcrackers, candies, hats and sweaters, were surprisingly well priced. The food and drinks were also well priced. In Fulton Market, at a pop-up, you become a little cynical and expect insane pricing but it actually was quite fair. I picked up some cute cookie tins as a last minute gift. All in all, the Jack Frost pop-up was a lovely surprise and with its excellent location in Fulton Market, you have plenty of dinner options for later! I do highly recommend a weeknight to avoid crowds!

    I booked the Skyline Pitch for my birthday, and it honestly couldn't have been a better experience…read more First off, the setting is unreal. Playing up there with the Chicago skyline in the background makes it feel like a special event automatically -- especially around sunset and under the lights. It's easily one of the coolest places to host a game in the city. The field itself was in great condition -- clean turf, well marked lines, and plenty of space to play competitively without feeling crowded. Everything felt organized and ready when we arrived. Shoutout to Gabriel on the staff -- he was extremely helpful throughout the process. From booking to day-of coordination, he made everything smooth and stress-free. It made a big difference knowing someone was on top of the details so we could just enjoy the games. The teqball table was also a huge hit. It gave everyone something fun to do before and after matches, and not many places offer that. It added a unique touch to the whole experience. Between the skyline views, quality field, helpful staff, and fun extras like the teqball table, this was an awesome birthday setup. I'd definitely book it again.

    Skyline Pitch is a pretty cool rooftop soccer spot. We signed up to play open /pickup soccer. The…read moretime slot was 2 hours and players jump into the game whenever they arrive. Check-in was simple and they had cleats you could rent. The space to play was good for no more than 6X6 game. The view is magnificent. There are even fun games for those observing. It is on the roof and on the second floor is a grocery store so it's super convenient to pickup something to drink or snacks. This is definitely a great place to meet up with friends or even to rent out a side for a birthday party. There wasn't any food sold but with the grocery store on the second floor, it's easy to grab food to eat. The price was VERY reasonable for Chicago as well!
