Travel

Traveling to CHICAGO

O'Hare International Airport (ORD) and Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW) are both 15 miles from downtown. Ubers and taxis are available to get into the city. Blue Line Trains (CTA) from O'Hare or the Orange Line Trains (CTA) from Midway are also great options to beat the traffic!

We highly recommend avoiding renting a car while in the city due to traffic and parking costs. Chicago is very walkable with LOTS of public transportation options in addition to Ubers/Lyfts.

Accomodations

Hotels in the Gold Coast, Loop, River North, West Loop, Fulton Market, or Lincoln Park neighborhoods are safe, close to the venue, and have lots of fun things to do nearby!
