The "Windy City" is a unique metropolis consisting of the US's second largest central business district as well as a rich culture filled with the performing arts and world class cuisine. This combination allows for high traffic exposure of billboards on one of the major interstate highways running through Chicago such as Interstate 55, Interstate 57, Interstate 65 or Interstate 80.
You are also able to target your audience through outdoor advertising in downtown attractions like Rogers Park or Grant Park. Soldier Field, home of the Chicago Bears is another out-of-home advertising option. The hundreds of restaurants on State Street create yet another effective advertising opportunity.
