Chicago’s central location and diverse population make it an ideal place to do business. As a center for the nation’s railroads, interstate highways and commercial airline travel, Chicago is as easy to get to as it is to get around.
Its renowned venues serve the needs of any size gathering, from a major trade show at McCormick Place® Convention Center - America’s largest convention center – to a midsize exhibition at beautiful Navy Pier, to a smaller meeting at any of Chicago’s top-rated hotels.
And to make planning the perfect event even easier, we’re dedicated to helping meeting planners and their attendees with everything from laying out the plan to laying out the welcome mat.
Meeting planners can search for Special Event Venues such as museums, restaurants, and theaters; use Housing Services to manage your group housing needs; or fill out the Service Request Form and access more than 1,600 area businesses to help plan your event.
Our Destination Marketing Kit is a powerful tool containing useful marketing materials like Chicago print ad templates, photography, editorial, and maps. Best of all, it’s free! Just fill out the registration form to get started.
Even more tools are available, such as an online version of our latest Meeting Professionals Guide. If you still can’t find what you’re looking for, peruse the CCTB’s Meeting Planner Contacts and gain access to one of the industry’s most experienced sales teams.
