What To Expect
Visit Chicago's highest point, the Skydeck on the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower (formerly known as the Sears Tower) with this pre-paid admission ticket. Enjoy panoramic views of the Chicago skyline, world-famous for its distinctive architecture.
Explore several exhibits at the on-site Chicago Experience, designed for learners of all ages, like interactive digital floor displays, touch-screen activities and scavenger hunts that not only highlight Chicago's iconic landmark, but also celebrate the Windy City's sports, architecture, pop culture, history, food, music and people. Challenge yourself with a Chicago trivia game, compare the heights of the tallest structures in the world, and see just how many of your bodies it would take to reach the height of Willis Tower.
Walk out onto the Ledge, a glass box-like balcony that extends 4.3 feet (1.3 meters) from the building, and experience an unconventional view of the city — from above. Admire the lofty views of top Chicago attractions, like Wrigley Field, the Navy Pier and Millennium Park, all from a breathtaking height of 1,353 feet (412.4 meters). On a clear day, you can see up to 50 miles (80.5 km) out. It’s also the perfect vantage point for great sunset and twinkling night city views.

The views, you are only allowed 90 sec on the Skydeck. Wish that could be a little longer. Pretty cool experience

Destiny_B, Apr 2024
While the experience was cool, the long line to wait to get up the elevator was unbearable. It was very hot waiting in line and made us second guess our decision to book. Won’t take the time to do it again.

The excellent view at the ledge. The staff’s efficiency. The electronic information boards. I was impressed.
