Ride Affordably with CTA in the Cold Winter Weather

February 2, 2023

Service to/from various shows and sporting events at the United Center

Allow CTA to get you wherever you need to go across the city. Customers can save money by purchasing an unlimited rides pass, either the 1-Day ($5) – far more economical and convenient than the price of gas and parking - or the 3-Day ($15) pass – a real budget-saving move.

Service for Upcoming Events

United Center

Get to and from the following events via #20 Madison and #50 Damen routes. Customers can also take the #19 United Center Express post event:

  • Charlotte Hornets vs. Chicago Bulls – Thu. 2/2 at 7 p.m.
  • Portland Trail Blazers vs. Chicago Bulls – Sat. 2/4 at 7 p.m.
  • Adam Sandler show – Sun. 2/5 at 7:30 p.m.
  • San Antonio Spurs vs. Chicago Bulls – Mon. 2/6 at 7 p.m.
  • Anaheim Ducks vs. Chicago Blackhawks – Tue. 2/7 at 7:30 p.m.

Know before you go!


The CTA strongly recommends customers allow extra travel time and plan ahead by downloading the Ventra app, which allows you to manage your Ventra account, and also features a new trip planning tool powered by Google Maps. 

Masks are no longer required on CTA: While the city continues to see low levels of transmission of COVID-19, customers and employees who wish to continue wearing masks are encouraged to do so. We ask all customers to be courteous and respectful to fellow riders.

Fare payment options: We offer a variety of convenient payment options—from smart devices to contactless credit cards. Learn more about payment options and ways you can maximize your dollars with our lower-priced unlimited-ride passes by visiting: transitchicago.com/fares/
