This venue is fine if you don't do lawn.

NEVER do lawn at Northerly.
This nails it. The Lawn is brutal. The venue is fine.

I moved from Buffalo NY to Chicago where Darien was the home venue (Darien is the worst). Trust me, people in WNY would kill for a venue like Northerly, right in the city. I've never been bothered by a little bit of a walk. Would people actually prefer to travel , during Rush Hour to Tinley?!

If you haven't been, you have nothing to worry about with the venue. It's not Alpine, or Deer Creek type atmosphere, But the ease of staying in the city, walking/Red Line/ Uber to Museum campus makes it good enough! I also think the concession areas, including the large tent in the lawn area makes bathrooms and concessions easier to manage than most venues.

But don't do Lawn, you'll be watching on a TV...
