Save the Date: Greektown’s Cheer Event for 2024 Chicago Marathon, October 13th
Greektown is one of the best spots in the city to watch the Chicago Marathon runners on Sunday, October 13. The runners will loop through Greektown twice, at Mile 14 and just after Mile 17, so you’ll be able to show lots of support at our marathon event. And fun fact: the origins of the marathon are in ancient Greece!
Join us at the corner of Gladys and Halsted Street on October 13 from 8 a.m.- 2 p.m. to cheer on the marathon runners, make signs, enjoy complimentary coffee and sweet treats, and dance to Greek music played by DJ Yianni on site. After all that cheering, you may feel hungry for a delicious meal- don’t forget to stop by one of our many Greektown restaurants afterwards.
