Known as the trendy college town between Chicago, Indianapolis, and St. Louis, Champaign-Urbana is home to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. This lively college town is always buzzing with live music, bustling cafes, galleries, public art crawls, and a constant stream of events to choose from. The global flavors, paired with locally crafted brews made from its own grains and sustainable farm-to-table restaurants, earned the city the title of "Greatest Midwest Food Town" from Midwest Living in 2017. The nearest major airport is Indianapolis International, where you can explore the city's scenic district full of art and shopping before heading to the Twin Cities, which is a 2-hour drive away. You can also fly into Willard Airport, located just 6 miles south of Champaign, with direct connections from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and Chicago O'Hare International Airport, America's most 'well-connected' airport.
