Gameday partners with Hyatt Hotels in Chicago to provide our clients this option. Depending on that weekend’s availability the package will include either the Hyatt Regency located at 151 E. Wacker or Hyatt Place Chicago The Loop located at 1551 West North Avenue. Both are within an easy 15 minute car ride. An uber voucher will be provided upon purchase for travel to and from the brewery.
Can I extend my stay beyond two nights?
Yes, however rates will be adjusted according to the hotel’s availability for the additional night(s).
Can I change my bus tier?
If you have minors or senior citizens, we can make those price adjustments via phone before purchase. While we can offer special rooms rates and Irish Express trips individually for those wanting to participate in portions of the offer, we cannot make Bus Tier changes to the Weekend Package pricing.
