CHICAGO Guide on OTLCityGuides.com
Welcome to the CHICAGO City Guide on OTL City Guides!
OTL is the same family-owned brand behind the OTL Seat Fillers club. And, yes, there is a seat fillers club in the Chicago area!
The Chicago Guide includes Things to Eat, Things to Do, and Things to Learn.
Our Chicago event calendar is powered by Evvnt. Since it’s updated every hour, you’ll always be able to see the latest shows and activities. Directory listings, restaurant recommendations, and plenty more are also available.
However, reviews, comments, and negativity are off the table. We are happy to post Chicago area blogs, season schedules, and other Chicago-related information. But, we’ll leave the discussion to social media and other sites. Enjoy!

Seat Fillers in CHICAGO
Would YOU enjoy being a Chicago area seat filler?
Consider these questions:
- Is it nice to get free tickets?
- Does live entertainment appeal to me, such as plays, musicals, comedy, and music?
- Will it be fun to see what shows pop up out of the blue (but aware that they aren’t always available)?
- Would it be fun to treat my family and friends to free tickets?
- Do I have a budget that allows me to pay $10 to $15 per month for all-inclusive seating privileges?
Ask yourself one more question if you answered yes to all of the above:
What am I waiting for?
Seat Filling in CHICAGO
Would you like to expand the audience of your Chicago area show, event, service, or activity?
If so, then local seat filling through OTLSeatFillers.com is effective marketing for the 21st century!
It works like this:
- Tell OTL how many tickets or admissions you’d like to offer to seat fillers
- Members can reserve tickets in their member area
- You will receive a reservation/will-call list from OTL
- On the day of the event (or activity), you distribute the tickets or manage admissions.
Providing complimentary tickets or admission is all you need to do. However, OTL never announces your efforts (so your regular ticket sales aren’t impacted!).

If you’re looking for someplace new to explore or just want to add a few more museums to your list of favorites, the Windy City is one of the best.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Chicago Guide
Our Chicago Guide focuses on What to Do, Eat, and Learn in the Windy City (and beyond). Powered by Evvnt, the events calendar is auto-updated every hour. Additional resources include lists of movie theaters, museums, theaters and theater groups, restaurant recommendations, and more. Chicago area information is provided by the OTL team and locals who really know their stuff.
The OTL City Guides and Seat Fillers websites are sister sites. OTL Chicago Seat Fillers is a membership club open to members only, while the Chicago City Guide is a free resource available to anyone. Public events are listed on the Chicago City Guides events calendar, but free tickets offered to Chicago area seat fillers are posted privately.
It’s easy! OTL loves to share information. So, all you have to do is use the submissions form – https://otlcityguides.com/local-submissions. In addition to seasonal schedules and blog posts, the Chicago City Guide will feature discounts, business launches, and other news and resources throughout the area. However, the content needs to remain relevant for a while. We can’t publish one-day events or postings with a time-sensitive nature (at least not yet).
