Amazing Chicago's Funhouse Maze

Amazing Chicago's Funhouse Maze is a mirror-filled attraction at Navy Pier featuring multiple chambers with optical illusions and special lighting. These effects create disorienting spaces that challenge your sense of direction and spatial awareness.

The attraction opened at Navy Pier in 2001 and has drawn millions of visitors through its mirrored corridors since then. It grew from the broader tradition of amusement experiences and interactive installations along Chicago's waterfront.

The maze incorporates elements of Chicago's urban identity through specialized rooms featuring local landmarks and architectural references in mirror configurations.

The maze is easily accessible at Navy Pier and friendly to most visitors of all ages. Plan to spend about 20 to 30 minutes finding your way through all the chambers, longer if you enjoy taking photos.

One special room uses mirrors and LED installations to create endless reflections that multiply images in every direction. Visitors often find themselves losing track of which way is real and which way is reflection.
