Getting there
25 km (16 mi) separates United Artists Theatre from O'Hare International Airport (ORD) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
4.2 km (2.6 mi) out from the middle of Chicago — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.
Chicago has 231 venues mapped in total and a population of 2,721,308. The Chicago guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
1,703 is enough for a whole programme in a single room, which removes the hardest logistics problem an event has. Ask what the room looks like empty — the seated figure and the usable one are rarely the same.
- 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.
- community meetings
Room for 1,703 covers most community and member meetings.
