The premium gaming, hospitality and entertainment resort in Chicago Southland, Wind Creek Chicago Southland, announced that a live, multi-phase singing competition, awarding a top prize of $100,000, is open for pre-registration.
The venue is bringing the famous Sing Your Way to $100K competition, calling all vocalists across the Chicagoland area.
Wind Creek Casino's decision to host the exciting music competition comes after Sing Your Way to $100K launched successfully at Magic City Casino in Miami, Florida, earlier this year.
At the time, Albert Pedroso emerged as the big winner, taking home the competition's grand prize of $100,000.
The arrival of Sing Your Way to $100K to Wind Creek Chicago Southland represents the first regional installment of the popular competition.
It complements the venue's list of entertainment activities, promising exceptional experiences with its grand final planned near the end of August.

"We knew from the start that Sing Your Way to $100K had the potential to become something much bigger than a one-time event," he explained.
Finally, Enriquez said: "The talent, the energy, and the community response in Miami far exceeded our expectations—and it's incredibly exciting to see that momentum carry into the Chicago market. We're proud to see Wind Creek Chicago Southland take the stage next and continue building this into a signature experience for Wind Creek properties nationwide."
Roger Kuehn, Wind Creek Chicago Southland's Executive Vice President and General Manager, added: "Chicago's artistic legacy runs deep—from its music and theater to the everyday voices that shape its neighborhoods."
