Chicagoans can expect longer lines and increased security measures at Millennium Park concerts and events this summer, according to city officials. The City and the Office of Emergency Management and Communications will execute bag checks for all shows at Pritzker Pavilion, activate a security perimeter around the park and prohibit outside booze for certain events.
“In the wake of terror attacks in major cities and entertainment venues across the globe, the City’s public safety officials have reassessed and strengthened the security measures [at Millennium Park],” says OEMC executive director Alicia Tate-Nadeau in a press release.
