Midway Airport or O'Hare International AirportMidway Airport or O'Hare International Airport

We recommend flying into Midway Airport (MDW) because it's closer to downtown. However, O'Hare Airport (ORD) may have cheaper and more international flight options. Our Event will be in the heart of Downtown on the Magnificent Mile - Michigan Ave.
