Check out the website www.nsccshow.com
There are a few hotels connected right to the convention center. I also think there is a train stop a few blocks away that goes downtown. I'm not sure about the Cubs game...I would think a cab would be the best option, unless it's easy to switch trains.

Nothing yet, but about a week ago on the shows Facebook page they said they would announce the 1st wave of signers in a few weeks.

Even a mall or shopping area close by (preferably without having to get back on the freeway) would help.

Thanks!

There is a MAMMOTH IKEA about 20 minutes north by freeway in Schaumburg. It's been a while since I've gone but I think we went to a few other places near there.
