Hey Blues Goers....

I'm from Millennium Garages (network of four underground garages under Grant and Millennium Park) and wanted to let you know about the best place to park for the Blues Festival this weekend. Check out www.millenniumgarages.com for directions. Plus, as part of our “Summer Parking Promise” - if we don't have a spot for you at any of our 4 locations we will give you a free $50 gas gift card! Why not park right under all of the action?
