Here’s what meeting planners & our current listing members say…

  • You and Here's Chicago have been a great friend and resource to me for many years. I too was just starting doing events for my employer when we met, and now I am on my own. Because of you I was able to take my events to another level. Your network of venues and people have made my job so much easier...and fun. Thanks for all you do. To have a great event you need Here's Chicago as a backdrop and Jim Grillo.

    Enjoy the weather.

The site really is a planners dream because not only is it robust but it’s comprehensive and well organized.
