McCormick Place Rooftop Garden Review

Got hustled for parking outside be careful with that but the all around experience was awesome

Star Wars!!! 2019. Wish I could go back every weekend!

It's the Auto Show. Place is very spacious, parking was great, underground and only $10!

Parking was ok I was hoping it would be indoors rather than outdoor also it was extremely hot and humid indoors

Pir that there we celebrate the 100th Lions Clubs Convention

I came to the McCormick place for the auto show. The staff were nice and restaurants were clean. Be prepared to walk, this place is HUGE!

This year I attended ISTE18 in Chicago, stayed downtown (who wouldn t), but was quite surprised to find that the convention center was not located closer to the elevated rail... there were 24,000 attendees at the conference

Certainly, I don t mind walking 2 blocks, I m just saying that I was surprised that a giant convention center would not have better transportation DIRECTLY to the site Of course you can take a bus or shuttle or Uber up a ride, but that just requires so much additional cost or environmental impact rather than using fantastic public transportation like the L

In addition, the expo hall was choppy , there s a giant elevated section that placed many vendors in odd places. In fact, while chatting with some of the vendors, they were disappointed in the lack of foot traffic because of the layout of the expo hall.

So impressive. I have been here for several events and it amazes me how the venue changes for each event.

I was attending 2017 MAS-ICNA convention. It was very well organized, but it lacks drinking water fountains.

The largest convention center I know! Excellent place!

This place can support any size of event. There are several options for eating and small stores for office supplies.

Auto show was a big time fail, was not impress at all ,

i've been to a few conferences here - i really don't care for this convention center - inconvenient location, extremely spread out which requires walking long distances to get between meetings. there's really no restaurants except fast food in the neighborhood so you're stuck with convention food. the thing that really kills me is that there are only two locations in the center that sell coffee and they're never adequately staffed which leads to ridiculously long lines

Huge. A little tough to get around on your own the first time but lots of staff to help guide you. Expect to walk a lot as the place is ginormous. Did I mention the place is big?

Huge place. Saw the CAS2017, everything was mostly clean for an event that size.. properly staffed, lines were short.

Great place to attend a conference, but not the greatest place to load-in, set up, & manage an event...

Nice looking place, massive on size, but food & drinks are way over priced.

Confusing and giant, but once you are where you need to be it makes a kind of sense...

Everything overpriced as usual. Parking over 20 bucks.

It is an important place for events in Chicago. I understand that the most important, what I do not like is that there are few options to eat inside, it is better to go to the surroundings

This convention center is absolutely huge! To be very frank in my comments it s not very well marked it s not easy to understand which doors take you to which rooms. It seems like they should have an app just to navigate this building.

Beautiful convention center.

Right by the ocean, has a built in waterfall.
Huge venue, definitely a great spot to hold a big event!

Good venue, needs more garbage and recycling receptacles

This place never disappoints. A lot of square feet to cover.

It's a huge fair and convention center, like every place in there.

Great car show. It was my first time and I really enjoyed myself.

They need more restaurants in this area that are actually open during weekend events. This place and surrounding area is dead before 7am.

I went with friends and we had a lot of fun. I got to see some of my favorites, but I missed some from last year that didn t attend, but still definitely a good time!

Within a stones through of MCormick Place I was able to visit the Field Museum, the Adler Planetarium, walk the beautifully kept grounds and visit the Shedd Aquarium all before my daughter said we go to go see the bean . Great city Chicago

I have a love-hate relationship with McCormick Place. It's perfect for annual events like C2E2, but parking and the cost of food can get stressful.

Watch out for the unattended children. They are everywhere! RV and Boat Show.

Great venue! Was there for the national resturant association show.
Parking is not well planned. Hey city we need to be more friendly, or we will lose another show (with all those jobs) to Vegas. Who's dumb idea was it to hold the new mayors swearing in across the street from McCormick place during the show.

Its the mccormick place. They have great events here the place is huge and clean.

Great space for exhibitions, but parking can be rough.

Have only been here for the Chicago Auto Show. It's a lot of fun and I highly recommend it.

Great Facility and good parking, everything was in order for the auto show

Great be auto show as usual. I'm thinking that the entry fee could be less though.

Very large convention center but could do with a few more coffee spots

Went for car show. Clean bathrooms. Nice personnel!

Boat show should be for free, not 15 dollars each ticket! 4 tickets are 60 dollars!
I was running around all the show area scanning qr codes wishing to win a boat bag. I collected 15 , and when the show was gonna closing I asked stuff to give me a prize. They told me something that I couldn't get because my English is a little poor. So they gave me just cup holder!!! It costed 3 scanes, not 15!!!
Gosh! I WAS SUCH DISAPPOINTED! MY FEET WERE HURT BECAUSE I WAS RUNNING AROUND ALL THE AREA LOOKING FOR QR!!!
I will never come there again!

Went for the auto show with my son and had a great time. Awsome

Huge convention center. Takes a long time to walk from one place to another. Parking is expensive usually alomost $30 for an event but very nice cat walk and safe parking.

The truth expected more. The super dirty bathrooms are almost maintenance free during the event. The food court could have a little more variety and the tellers give poor service. The Internet is cut in some price sectors. It has good accessibility from the center via buses.

Huge exhibition centre that has put some effort into being architecturally intersting too.

No convention center in the country is more inconvenient to get to or get away from

Plently of room for the convention, food, and more. Even had restaurants inside.

Building was huge and cool, the 2020 Autoshow was just okay, and the souvenirs were lame, poor design, looked like kindergarten scribbles... Detroit's North American International Auto Show (N.A.I.A.S) normally has at least twice as many automakers and cars on display. Disappointed I came all the way here from the middle of Michigan.

Other than the walking, if I go to a show here at the McCormick Place? It's always spectacular!
