About Chicago Weekend Fun – Privacy Policy And Advertising Opportunities

Thank You for reading and subscribing to this blog via RSS, FeedBurner or Feedblitz! I am glad you’re here.

How this site came about: I have been asked by friends, family and random people on the street about what to do when they visit Chicago as well as where to go for entertainment and great food. So, in response to all these questions, I write about events, restaurants, local Chicago festivals, music events, news items and touristy things to do when you visit.

I give people honest advice on what to see and where to go and tips about traveling and vacationing in Chicago because I have been to these places myself and can write about them based on my experiences. Hopefully, I will provide you some top tips and helpful insight about going to or out in Chicago and feel free to leave me comments about the information I have provided. I am always happy to hear about what you think, and what you’d like me to review next.

I also have some experience that I can draw on for my evaluations of these events in the city. My background is varied and my skills are scattered but overall these collection of experiences give me some experience with Chicago’s many scenes. I also try and write with some irreverent humor, snark and a no BS attitude. If I don’t like something, I will definitely write about it. If I love something, I will write about it even more.

If you would like to advertise on Chicago Weekend Fun directly we now also have 125 x 125 ad spots available on the sidebar for $50 per month. (in jpg, gif or png format) These ad slots are seen on all pages of the site and include a click-able (no-follow) link to your site. Your ad will be seen by 50,000 people per month or more depending on site traffic. If you would like to purchase an ad now, please ask me for more information and give me the run dates you would like, through the Contact form and I will get it set up within 48 hrs of receiving the creative file, link and payment. (usually less time than that unless I am offline for the weekend) If you have an upcoming event or attraction you would like to advertise here, running an ad for 30-90 days prior to the event date would be the best way to generate awareness and interest.

News: If you have an event or news you would like me to mention please complete my contact form (linked from the sidebar) a few weeks before the event, OR if it is breaking news or happening the same week you are trying to contact me, post a comment instead and I will follow up from there. We can’t post about every event we get information about but we try to see if it is a good fit for the majority of the audience and then work it in if we can. Please let us know why your event is special and why our readers would love to hear about it.
