Boston, N.Y. and Chicago holding festivals throughout summer 2011

Chicago's parks host great music festivals in summer.
Porter Airlines, the best little airline that ever flew, sent me a reminder this morning that there's a bunch of summer  festivals coming up in the cities where the 4-star (out of five) airline flies into.

In New York (Porter actually flies into Newark - the New Jersey city that's a short cab ride from downtown Manhatten) the Blue Note Jazz Festival is being held throughout June, That festival, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, is expanding its doors throughout New York to feature numerous high-profile acts such as Dave Brubeck, Nancy Wilson, Bobby McFerrin, Roberta Flack, Brian Wilson and more.

Over in Chicago (Porter flies right into downtown Midway Airport) they're holding the Grant Park Music Festival in Millennium Park. Chicago, which is the sister city of Toronto, is one of the best music festival cities in the world with events honouring blues and jazz being held throughout the summer and fall months. The music festivals in majestic Millennium and Grant parks, which showcase the parks' stunning landscapes, always attracts big crowds and great artists.

And in Boston, now home to the 2011 Stanley Cup Champion Bruins, Art Fridays is a festival not to be missed.
Arts Friday is downtown Boston's largest weekly outdoor arts and crafts market that has grown into a Boston institution. Enjoy live music performances while you shop and delicious food options (make sure you try the lobster rolls) are only steps away. Arts Fridays run throughout June.

Porter can get you to any of these great American cities in about an hour from Toronto's downtown Billy Bishop Airport and I guarantee you'll love the big service thrills little Porter delivers to its customers.
