Package Highlights
 

Own a piece of Cubs history with this authentic jersey signed by Chicago’s electrifying center fielder, Pete Crow-Armstrong (PCA), 2025 All-Star & Gold Glove Winner. In a year that cemented his place among baseball’s elite, Crow-Armstrong became only the second player in Cubs history—joining Sammy Sosa—to achieve a 30 home run / 30 stolen base season. A fan favorite for his speed, power, and fearless defense, PCA dazzled the league as both a 2025 All-Star starter and the National League Gold Glove Award winner in center field. From his jaw-dropping grand slam in May to his record-setting 25/25 milestone in just 92 games, Crow-Armstrong’s 2025 season was one for the record books. This signed jersey celebrates his meteoric rise and represents the next great era of Chicago Cubs baseball. A must-have for serious Cubs fans and collectors alike—bid high to take home this piece of baseball greatness!

You and your group of six (all ages welcome) will enjoy an authentic firehouse lunch or dinner prepared by local first responder heroes at the historic station across from Wrigley Field. Go behind the scenes for a rare, hands-on look at life as a firefighter—ride the truck, try on the gear, carry a hose, and maybe even slide down the pole! It’s a one-of-a-kind experience that money can’t usually buy—perfect for families, kids, or friends looking to make unforgettable memories together.

Indulge in a special evening at RPM Italian, one of Chicago’s most celebrated restaurants. Your group of eight will enjoy a chef-curated dinner in the elegant private Boardroom, featuring signature Italian dishes crafted with the finest ingredients and perfectly paired wines. From handmade pastas to expertly selected vintages, every course captures the spirit of Italy—right in the heart of River North. Whether it’s a special occasion or a night out with friends, this premier dining experience promises sophistication, warmth, and the impeccable service that has made RPM Italian a Chicago favorite.

Here’s your chance to score a once-in-a-lifetime, bucket-list experience! First, you and three guests will step onto the Blackhawks’ historic ice for an unforgettable center-ice photo op. Then, you'll settle into your 100-level seats to cheer on the Blackhawks from a primo view.

Set sail on a two-hour private cruise for ten guests aboard a stunning 45-foot Pardo yacht. Your captain will navigate either the Chicago River or Lake Michigan, depending on weather conditions, ensuring a spectacular experience tailored to the day. Take in Chicago’s world-famous skyline from the best seat in the city—on the water—while enjoying six bottles of Chandon Blanc de Pinot Noir Sparkling Wine to toast the moment in true style. Perfect for a celebration, special occasion, or simply savoring summer in Chicago.
