Michael’s 30th Birthday Bash!

You’re invited to an open weekend full of events that are loosely strung together around Michael’s 30th birthday! Mostly this is your excuse to come enjoy Chicago around Christmastime - I know you want to!

When

Folx are invited to arrive on December 19th and stay as long as they want!

For reference, The Landii Family will arrive on Friday, December 19 and check-out on Sunday, December 21.

A timeline of activities will take shape as we get closer, and I’ll update anyone who RSVP’s with more info as the time comes!

Where

All over Chicago! We will be staying at the Hilton Palmer House Hotel for the weekend.

But anywhere that you want to stay sounds great! We will stay mostly in The Loop for the weekend.
