What's on, what to book ahead, and where to take colleagues and clients during a business trip to Chicago this month.

On the calendar

11 dates to plan around

Our rule of thumb for groups. Individual venues vary, so confirm when you call.

Groups of 10 or more: book a private room 3 to 4 weeks ahead in a normal week.
Conference weeks: book as soon as your dates are set. Each conference guide shows our book-by date.
Game nights near the arena: book pregame dinners at least a week ahead.
Holidays: many restaurants close or switch to set menus, so confirm hours before you book.
