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

  • "We just booked a $100,000 private event in July from our membership with Hereschicago.com. You saved our month which is typically our slowest month of the year!! Thank you!"

    Sales Manager, Untitled

  • "I am a relatively new customer of Here’s Chicago and have had great success with our advertisement thus far! I have found that we have received consistent, quantified leads from groups that we would not otherwise have had access to– and these groups have booked! The cost for our annual listing is well worth the price for the return that we have received. Be sure to utilize the promotions option as well as they are great resources to get the most out of your money."

  • “We have wanted to come to Chicago with our clients, but, we couldn’t find a site that put us over the top until we saw your site and all of the wonderful vendors! I love the videos and makes me want to do more in Chicago with my large client events . As an event professional, you have a lot I can utilize and will definitely be giving the vendors I found on your site a call on Monday or Tuesday. I would like to see your site in all states! It is user friendly, very interactive and displays unique Chicago venues and features great videos such as Fado Irish Pub, etc. video site tour.”

  • I have had the pleasure of working with Jim and his team on many different events and have always found them to be professional, detail orientated and the best that the City of Chicago has to offer in hospitality and in the connecting of people from different cultures and businesses. Thanks for all that you do Jim!

    Sheryl Novak

  • Here’s Chicago is an amazing site and I will definitely tout it to all my fellow event planners and clients who have a need for planning events in the Chicago area. The site really is a planner's dream because not only is it robust but it’s comprehensive and well organized. I would think every credible venue, entertainer, and transportation company would clamor to be a part of your site. Chicago Tourism should be indebted to you for creating such a great tool!
