Soaring 1,000 feet over Chicago’s legendary Michigan Avenue, 360 CHICAGO is one of the city’s most unique attractions. Located at 875 N. Michigan Avenue on the 94th floor of the John Hancock Center, 360 CHICAGO (formerly John Hancock Observatory) offers breathtaking views of Chicago’s lakefront, magnificent skyline and four neighboring states.

After only a 40-second ride in North America's fastest elevators to the observation deck, guests can experience what Travel & Leisure Magazine voted one of the best views in America. 360 CHICAGO is also the only place where locals and visitors alike can enjoy TILT – Chicago’s highest moving experience. This one-of-a-kind marvel tilts guests out and over the city from the 94th-floor observation deck and gives up to 8 visitors at a time the most thrilling views of Chicago.

Along with the unforgettable excitement of TILT, and its spectacular views of the city skyline, 360 CHICAGO also offers a variety of educational opportunities.

Going to 360 Chicago during the week was an excellent idea! We did not have to wait in line and the view of the skyline was beautiful! I have lived near Chicago my whole life and never experienced anything like this! The staff was friendly and the drink at the bar were reasonable and delicious!

"Great online prices."
September 2018
The reason I choose to book the tickets form here is great online price. You get the vouchers on the email and they can be redeemed any time at the counter. Sometimes ticket windows close due to rush but if you have a voucher they provide you tickets instantly and you are good to go. This part was great as I visited on Labor Day weekend.

Tip: This is not a fast pass and only voucher. You have to collect the tickets from counter

"Way too expensive for eeehhhh nothing!"
September 2018
You pay a hundred dollars to see the city from a building of which there are many more. Nothing is included, no drinks, not the pictures of 25 usd , nor the window that tilts 8 usd. Ridiculous. Save your money and go to a top floor for free somewhere else

They have an adult ticket where you get a beverage at the top so we did that. The wait to go up took about 45 mins but we could come down when we wanted. Spectacular views of the city and great lake!

Went here while walking the magnificent mile. Clear day with great views . Took around 15 minutes to get on elevator because limited number of people in a ride due to Corona virus. Bought ticket which included drink. Military discount was a bonus.

"Fantastic view of the city, great experience"

360 Chicago, the observation deck atop the John Hancock Center, offers a great view of downtown Chicago, Lake Michigan and surrounding areas. Compared to the Skydeck Chicago observation deck at the top of the Willis (Sears) Tower, 360 Chicago is a better view, a shorter wait time and a more pleasant experience, all for a lower price. If you're doing only one skyscraper observation deck, 360 Chicago is by far the better choice.
