Chicago Is

Nature and architecture are born of different materials, yet share the same quiet instinct to rise. Delicate stems reach toward the sky, answered by towers of steel and glass that reflect one another.

The subtle details of the event enhance the space, making it feel as though it was built for this instant.

For a moment, the Chicago skyline no longer feels like a backdrop at all, but something living within. An arrangement where light and structure exhale together.

With high-energy racing, incredible food and drinks, and plenty of friendly competition, this new venue brings a whole new level of excitement to the Chicago event scene. From intimate gatherings to large-scale corporate events, we’re already dreaming up all the ways our clients can take over the track.

We can’t wait to bring groups here and put a little pedal to the metal in their next Chicago experience.

Not every event can be captured in a photograph.

Some are meant to be felt in the rush before the doors open, in the electricity as guests fill the room, in the conversations that carry long past the event.

This educational celebration, brought to life in April, was one of those rare experiences. Every detail carried a story. Every challenge became part of the journey. Behind what guests experienced so effortlessly was a village of remarkable people navigating every twist, every pivot, and every possibility with intention and heart.

To our client, thank you for believing in a vision before it could be seen. And to the partners, artists, and vendors who poured your talent into every moment, thank you for proving, once again, that the most extraordinary experiences are never created alone.

Because true magic isn’t just what you see. It’s what the guests feel long after they have gone.

The Chicago Is..., A Global DMC Partner team recently had the privilege of partnering with Choose Chicago to support transportation and logistics for the Obama Presidential Center FAM.

What struck us most wasn’t simply the opportunity to showcase an exciting new venue for meetings and events. It was the opportunity to witness the impact this campus will have on Chicago’s future.

The Obama Presidential Center stands as more than a museum or event destination. It is a symbol of investment, possibility, and pride in the Hyde Park community. Visitors will leave inspired not only by the thoughtfully designed campus and exhibits, but by the surrounding neighborhood itself, its history, culture, resilience, and spirit.

As destination professionals, we’re always looking for ways to help guests experience the authentic heart of a city. This project is a reminder that Chicago’s greatest assets are not just its iconic skyline or world-class venues, but its neighborhoods, its people, and the stories that continue to shape its future.

“We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

Whether you’re visiting for a meeting, conference, or special event, the Obama Presidential Center offers something far greater than a venue. It offers a chance to experience a community, a story, and a vision for what is possible when hope, purpose, and action come together.
