There is the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont. The website is (www) rosemont.com/meeting/meet_desc.shtml. It is located near OHare International Airport and I-90. There are many hotels in the area. Pam

Thanks for the help!

Rosemont. Close to the airport. Accessible from all over the city by car or public transit. Lots of hotels with meeting facilities and a huge convention center. Stef

Thanks for the help!

Rosemont Definately!! Depends on how big your looking for....if your looking for smaller, maybe an O'hare hotel conference center....Don't know any off the top of my head...But Rosemont is really great! xoxoxojenn

Thanks for the help!

Bo, There's also the Convention Center in Tinley Park...way less traffic than Rosemont;) Cant wait for this to happen Kathy

Thanks for the input I am checking on Rosemont and Tinley Park at this time.

I vote for the Tinley Park Convention Center. I have been to a few conventions there and it is a very nice place. Also, very close to the expressway. I think there is also alot less traffic around that area. Mellisia
