Chicago, Illinois
Centrally located in the heart of the Midwest, Chicago has been named the “Best Big City in the U.S.” by Condé Nast Traveler readers for an unprecedented seven years in a row! From the ease of accessibility into Chicago to our diverse 77 neighborhoods and our world-class entertainment, attractions, and dining options, Chicago offers an experience like no other. This year, we are honored to host the Democratic National Convention August 19-22, 2024, at the United Center and McCormick Place, with more than 50,000 attendees. NASCAR Chicago Street Race is back for its second year in July 2024, with our iconic streets transforming the city into the main stage for adrenaline-pumping action. Chicago is one of the country’s most vibrant filmmaking hubs and we are thrilled to announce Sundance Institute x Chicago 2024 debuting this summer, featuring three days of film screenings in Chicago for the very first time.
