Getting there
At 63 km (39 mi), O'Hare International Airport (ORD) makes arrival day a travel day. Open registration the evening before if you can.
A central address is worth more than it looks: no shuttle, no parking plan, and evening sessions that people actually stay for.
Gary has 8 venues mapped in total and a population of 67,555. The Gary 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.
