WELCOME TO THE
CHICAGO RIVERWALK
FREE | OPEN 6AM -11PM
The City of Chicago is pleased to welcome you to the Chicago Riverwalk! The 1.25 mile long path along the Main Branch of the Chicago River was completed in 2016 under the leadership and vision of Mayor Emanuel to transform the Chicago River into a recreational destination and weave the life of the River into the urban fabric of the city. Since its opening, the Riverwalk has been a bustling hub of activity, offering a variety of venues and spaces for residents and visitors to eat, drink and play. The concession program has grown to 10 vendors this year, each providing new and innovative food and beverages options. In 2019 the Riverwalk expanded to include the Community Marketplace showcasing local, minority and women owned businesses from neighborhoods around the city.
