Quick answers for exhibitors planning a booth at McCormick Place.
Is Chicago a union trade show city?
Yes. Chicago is a highly coordinated union trade show market. McCormick Place exhibits often require advanced labor, freight, electrical, show services, installation, and dismantle planning, especially for larger booth installations and tight move-in schedules.
Why do exhibitors choose McCormick Place for major trade shows?
McCormick Place hosts major national and international events across manufacturing, technology, healthcare, transportation, infrastructure, packaging, and retail industries. Its connected hotels, meeting rooms, dining options, parking, and transportation links make it a major destination for Midwest, national, and global exhibitors.
How much does a trade show booth cost in Chicago?
Trade show booth costs vary based on booth size, design complexity, graphics, labor, shipping, storage, and show services. Chicago projects benefit from early budgeting because larger exhibits at McCormick Place often involve more detailed labor coordination, freight planning, and deadline management.
Do you handle installation at McCormick Place?

How early should exhibitors plan for major McCormick Place shows like ProMat, FABTECH, PACK EXPO, RSNA, or IMTS?
For major Chicago shows, exhibitors should begin planning as early as possible. Booth design, graphics, freight, electrical orders, labor schedules, hotel logistics, and show service deadlines can become more expensive or harder to coordinate when planning starts too late.
