Getting there

Allow half an hour each way to O'Hare International Airport (ORD), 21 km (13 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.

At 2 km (1.2 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.

Evanston has 18 venues mapped in total and a population of 76,006. The Evanston guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

This is a room for a workshop, a chapter meeting, a training day or one track of a larger programme. Anything with an exhibition attached needs a second space.

  • networking mixers

    An independent space with its own character, which a mixer benefits from more than a conference does.

  • fundraisers and galas

    A room with a personality is worth more at a gala than square footage is.
