It’s been almost exactly 30 years since Ferris Bueller took the world by storm with all of his shenanigans. Come on, Ferris! You can’t do that! You have school!
Fans of the 1986 cult-classic can get a dose of Ferris, Cameron and Sloan all weekend in Chicago at Ferris Fest. I know, because I am definitely attending Ferris Fest tomorrow to see what it is all about. Editor’s Note: This movie inspired me to be a valet for one summer, but I was ultimately fired for backing into a streetlamp.
From WGN:
30 years ago Ferris Bueller charmed his way out of school and into the hearts of millions of fans. And now you can recreate his entire “day off” with a whole lineup of events starting tomorrow.
For starters, you can step right into his bedroom.
Canadian artist Sarah Keenlyside has recreated the iconic bedroom inside the Virgin Hotel in downtown Chicago.
…
There is also a tour, taking fans to all the spots Ferris, Sloan and Cameron hit on their wild day off including the Art Institute, The Willis Tower and Wrigley Field.
You can also stop by their school and Cameron’s dad’s garage. You can attend a 1986 dance at Shermer High School and catch screenings of the movie at the John and Nancy Hughes Theatre in Lake Forest with some of the cast.
Ferris Bueller has a number of fantastic scenes, but none more iconic than his Beatles’ cover on the streets of downtown Chicago. Enjoy it here, because it’ll make your Friday that much more special:
Damn, those outfits are so ’80s. I think the ’80s would have been a fantastic time to be alive. Far better than anything this generation has to offer. No bullshit Blog Daddies and phone applications. Did we peak in the ’80s? I’d say so. But I also wouldn’t really know, because I was born in 1992.
Happy Friday, everyone..
Respond
Sloan, tho.
They all adore him. They think he’s a righteous dude.
Jesus Christ look at that neck
Getting unreasonably upset that they referred to the Sears Tower as the Willis Tower. #angryChicagoanproblems
I’ve seen more and more people calling it the Willis Tower and I keep wondering what memo I missed.
SAVE FERRIS!
Am I a bad person for having never seen this?
Yes.
$89 an hour! Seriously I don’t know why more people haven’t tried this, I work two shifts, 2 hours in the day and 2 in the evening…And i get surly a chek of $1260……0 whats awesome is Im working from home so I get more time with my kids.

Hey batter, batter, batter, SWING batter!
Anyone else never get why Cameron Frye was a Red Wings fan?
It was really just because John Hughes was a Red Wings fan. You’d think Cameron would have gotten attacked for wearing that in Chicago.
Why attacked? No one cared about the Blackhawks here until 2010.
People in Chicago get attacked by Patrick Kane for less.
One of my all time favorites. Great scene.
