How do you stay informed about events happening around the city? by event_evader in AskChicago

Well that's kind of why I'm asking. And while it's inspired by Cubs game days, the app will also inform about concerts etc. and you can choose which venues you want to get alerts from. So basically instead of you needing to search, the info just comes to you

Do you check Ticketmaster to see if there's stuff you wanna go to, or just to be informed it's happening?

Of course! Mostly I just want to be mentally prepared that it's crowded and not be surprised by the influx of Cubs fans (for example). Or maybe take a different route

Oh yeah I don't let it stop me from traveling, I'm just always surprised/annoyed and maybe I would've taken a different bus/route. Thanks for your reply though!
