Thirteen Thursdays

Back by popular demand, 13 Thursdays is a program designed to welcome the community back to Campustown.  Special offers and activities are planned every Thursday while the students are away on summer break which give you a great chance to rediscover one of Champaign’s most amazing success stories.   You can enjoy dining, retail and services while walking along beautiful tree lined Green Street, just steps away from the entrance to the University of Illinois.  Parking is never a hassle over the summer and many MTD routes make trips over lunch a breeze.  You won’t know what your missing until you try it out! 

Join us in rediscovering Campustown!
