Auto show was the bomb, and my wife enjoyed herself.
Huge place where different exhibitions can be visited, consult the exhibition agenda
One of the premier places for conventions like the Auto Show or Comics and Entertainment conventions in Chicago!
Amazing place for the National Restaurant Association Tradeshow!
What can I say, it's a Chicago Institution. WOW IT IS GORGEOUS!!!
HUGE place. Parking is confusing. Staff is nice & helpful except @ the McDonald's inside, VERY RUDE
Park in outlot for ease of getting in and out faster
A huge facility. Well maintained. Very cooperative staff and management.
A wonderful place for conferences and its only problem is that it is very huge
Always a great outing for the Auto Show! I enjoy your spacious it is out here. Getting here through public transport is also fairly convenient.
Chicago Auto show, decent wear a light jacket not a puffy coat, it gets very hot in there. Kids are free admission food available but tables are scarce best to bring a snack and own drinks and eat a meal elsewhere trade shows two hotels within one bliock
Wonderful spacious place with all services you need. A good place for business gathering, exhibition, and more. Enjoy it.
Every cocktail was made with a sugar substitute. Mmmmmm Aspartame. :(
Good conference facilities let down by poor food choices: limited option, outrageously expensive and as awful service as you can ever fear finding, particularly in one of the Starbucks. (30 minute queue to find they hadn't a clue how to make a cup of tea but we're willing to charge far more than ant Starbucks in the city centre all the same.)
Huge area with attached hotels and plenty of food vendors. We went for the Chicago Auto Show and it was awesome. There was an indoor, off road test track for Jeep and indoor test tracks for Kia and Toyota as well.
Excellent convention venue but parking and snacks are pricey.
Went to the chicago auto show here and it was pretty dope. We got a parking spot close by so it was all around a good experience with the homies.
Always a joy to come every year for the auto show! This year I was old enough to drive some of the vehicles and ask some serious questions about upgrading from a car to a truck. There was so much to see and do, a one day pass was not enough time.
Parking prices is a bit much but it's a venue for many events.
Great time love seeing all new kinds of cars , parking was easier this year.
Nice convention center. Long walks everywhere, place is huge
An amazing place not just for conventions but also for special events like the Chicago Autoshow 2018...
We came for the autoshow, it was very underwhelming and very unorganized for parking. We wasted over half hour because of that.
Was here during a conference in August 2017. This place is magnificent the attentions are top notch. They facilities are pretty convenient and easy to navigate thru. Bathrooms a super clean and staff is very friendly.
I love the show but . Why there is a few companies ?
Just like any other convention center save the fact that two days of parking cost me $52. I get big city parking shouldn't be cheap but this was out of sight!
The facility is kept relatively clean and the crowd for the auto show wasnt too bad on a Friday afternoon. My son said it was a free for all on Saturday with thousands of non car folk crowding the place with snotty nose kids and the kind of people who ignore the "dont touch" signs. Parking is a pain and expensive as are all Chicao venues. If you are not strong willed and instinctive when it comes to driving, you should take an Uber to the auto show...or just avoid the venue all together.
Thank God that you don't have to drive. Great planning by the city.
Very nice, spacious convention center in downtown Chicago. The building is laid out very well. The facilities were well maintained and even though we were there for the Auto Show, there was plenty of space for everyone to move around comfortably.
Paid parking lots but always a long walk and just maybe a lapse of memory to get back to your car. The customer service and the other staff members were really helpful. This place is huge so just be prepared to walk. There's a little foodcourt- McDonald's and Connie's pizza and Starbucks that's all I remember seeing. Of course there's public bathrooms, there is also a cab/taxi/uber/lyft drop off and pick up area.
Large, open, bright atmosphere. Handles large crowds easily. Transportation is easy to and from.
It is a nice place with beautiful halls for events of any kind
Very cavernous and confusing arrangement of meeting spaces often requires a path through extremely noisy gathering areas.
Received the vaccine here for my Mom. It was easy to find, parking was ample and the staff were friendly.
The auto show here was the largest I have attended! I loved seeing all the exotics and regular cars under one roof. The place was huge! However it was packed and hard to move. There had to be at least 60,000 people there today. This will be something I only do once. I would recommend seeing this if you love cars. Try to go during the week.
The place is a pretty good convention center. The staff were nice
Nice and clean with courteous staff who were mindful workers. The breakfast and lunch table were well replenished.
Had a great time at the car show McCormick place is so clean for being so big very impressed
Parking is a mess. The B lot is outside and to get to the inner c lot as well as the b lot you have to take a bit of a detour and approach it from the lakeside. the A lot is a unicorn. Google maps will take you to the front which is far from the parking lot entrances.
A beautiful convention center where I attended the C2E2 retailer and comic conventions. The convention center was attached to multiple other buildings which allowed me to navigate a few blocks without having to go out into the frigid cold of the Chicago streets. The center itself had tons of large rooms for displays, panels, meet and greets and information panels. The main hall was huge and where approximately 500 people ate. It is an easy walk from the Blue Line and during the late evenings its a really quick Uber ride all the way uptown to where I was staying.
Big. Super easy to get lost but it met our needs and the staff was really great.
Great venue for extremely large events, but not enough quick food vendors, and the signage is seriously lacking. Very confusing maps with no indication of to which side of a square the doors to a particular room open.
The auto show was fantastic my son and I had a great time.
This is a massive convention facility dwarfed only by the mega-complexes in Vegas. It can take an hour or longer to walk around the whole thing so make such you arrive in the right building for your event or it can take a while. There are a wide variety of dining, retail and lodging facilities on site but a well-stocked taxi line outside will also connected to the downtown area in about 15 minutes. The path on the lake makes for a welcome break for lunch if you have a conference here, and many rooms have a killer view of the water on a nice day.
Great facility, nice features. I am eating the location itself, not the event held in the location (C2E2 in my case). The facility had expected necessities such as restrooms, as well as niceties su h as available power outlets for us attendees. Facility staff were helpful and knowledgeable about the facility itself, as well as where to go for event-specific information.
Nice place but lacking in the food and bathroom departments.
The staff made fun of some cosplayers and there was lack of vegan food and everything was overpriced, $4 for on churro? Decent parking and bathrooms were clean.
Huge Venue with a connecting hotel perfect for conventions.
