Travel

Below we have some flight information and lodging recommendations for our out-of-town guests. Our venue, the Emil Bach House, is in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago. You could stay close by, or you could stay downtown if you'd like to experience that big city feeling. See our "Things to do" page for some off-the-beaten-path recommendations! Chicago can be a headache to drive in, but thankfully we have a robust public transit system (as well as Lyft and Uber!).

Flight

Chicago O'Hare International Airport

O'Hare is the larger of the Chicago airports, and has a huge number of domestic and international flights. It is a shorter car ride to the venue and lodging on the north side, but the L train ride is about the same as Midway.

Flight

Chicago Midway International Airport

Midway is the smaller of the Chicago airports, as well as the primary Southwest hub. It's a bit of a longer car ride to the venue and lodging on the north side, but about the same L train ride as O'Hare. (Melissa makes that commute daily!)

House Or Rental

There are a large number of Airbnbs throughout Chicago, which offer a great alternative to a hotel. Look in Rogers Park or Edgewater if you'd like to be near the venue. We also recommend Lincoln Square/Ravenswood, our beloved neighborhood, if you'd like to experience the small-town feel the big city can offer.
