Chicago Auto Show Social Media Preview

You have been invited to attend the Social Media Preview at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show. The Social Media Preview will take place on Friday, February 8 from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. During this event, invitees will have access to the show floor of the Chicago Auto Show and the Continental Media Center.

The Chicago Auto Show is held annually in the North and South Exhibition Halls of McCormick Place. First staged in 1901, the Chicago Auto Show is the largest auto show in North America and has been held more times than any other auto exposition on the continent. This year marks the 105th edition of the Chicago Auto Show. The show floor comprises more than 1 million square feet of exhibit space featuring more than 1000 vehicles.

Show Floor Internet Access. Both the North and South Exhibition Halls at McCormick Place will have free and open wi-fi Internet access. Additionally, the media center has secured wi-fi and hard-wire Internet connections.

Media Center. The media center is located in Room N426 of McCormick Place. The media center is open on Friday, February 8 from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Official Hotel. The official hotel of the Chicago Auto Show is Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers. We have arranged an exclusive rate of $119 for a standard guest room. To make a reservation at the special Auto Show rate, click here.

Parking. Those driving will find the 31st St. Lot their best bet. You may also park on the West side of McCormick Place in the Martin Luther King Drive Lot. Parking is NOT complimentary, as the lots are not operated by auto show management.

Media Shuttles. The show will operate a shuttle service from the Sheraton Chicago Hotel and Towers to Gate 26, almost directly below the show floor. Check with the hotel for shuttle pickup locations and times.

If you require additional information, please don't hesitate to contact the Chicago Auto Show communications team.
