Where Streeterville hosts use heating & cooling
Most event space is inside buildings with serious logistics. Condo party rooms, amenity floors and hotel ballrooms usually require freight elevator reservations, dock scheduling and sometimes proof of insurance. We can't issue certificates of insurance ourselves, so check what your building requires early. Michigan Avenue and Illinois Street are also heavily trafficked, so planning delivery windows around the building clock matters.
