Chicago as a meetings and events destination

Experience one of the best cities in the world
Chicago has been named the best city in the United States for eight years in a row, and is often recognized as one of the best in the world. It truly has something for all visitors – whether you are looking for unique off-site dinners, special events, or arts and culture. Chicago is accessible via two major international airports and is a highly walkable city with easy-to-navigate bus and train systems. Compared to other major U.S. cities, Chicago is often a more cost-effective option for meetings and events.

Gather in the heart of the city
When you book your meetings and events with Convene, you are giving your attendees an authentic Chicago experience. Both of our venues are within the heart of the city in the popular Loop neighborhood that sits on both the Chicago River and Lake Michigan. Our portfolio includes the entire third floor of Willis Tower – the most iconic building in Chicago and one of the most famous skyscrapers in the world.

Purpose-built for productivity
Unlike other venues, meetings and events are not an afterthought at Convene. Our spaces are purpose-built to bring people together and inspire collaboration, interaction, and productivity. Both properties are thoughtfully designed to feel modern and reflect the Loop neighborhood and city as a whole. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer natural light and beautiful views, allowing you and your guests to take in your vibrant surroundings.
