Yo-Yo Ma Bach DO, Millennium Park Chicago; 6/20/19; FREE

How about a Yo-Yo Ma Bach DO June 20, 2019?

Free concert, in Millennium Park. 6:30 pm. Maybe picnic on the lawn? Pub after?

With a donation of $150 you can get a reserved seat. The higher and lower-priced options for donating seem not to be available any more.

Post if you have interest.

I am interested. Unfortunately, airfare from SJC/SFO is usually an unreasonable $250-$350+. At the moment, for a 2-night stay, F9 is the lowest at $261, UA $351, and UA $388 from my home airport MRY, but I will monitor.

The only reserved seat option as of my posting is the $150 level.

Interested. Might be able to make it. Is it first come, first serve for unreserved seats?

I assume so. But there is a lawn.

And picnics are permitted on the lawn, including adult beverages.

OP updated to include a list of those interested.

The Hyatt Regency on Wacker will be a cat 3 (12K points, no 17+% tax) starting next month. A few blocks' walk to Millennium.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think they just outlawed adult beverages being brought into the Park.
