Last year I took my family downtown on Friday. We had lunch at Portillo's, visited the bean, went to Navy pier and had supper at Giordano's. We're not used to the traffic so this took us all day, but we had fun.

That too was one of our favorite things to do when we had our cars there this past November. We were there Wednesday and go to see every car come in

Great to hear you will be joining us!

There is so much to do, not only AT the show but downtown and also in the area. The convention center is located in "suburban" Chicago, about 1/2 hour ride from downtown. It is in the center of what is called the Rosemont entertainment district, which has a 130+ store outlet, a Muvico theater, all kinds of bars and restaurants, an indoor sky diving deal, a bowling alley and way too much more to list, all within walking distance and right by our Official host hotels.

You can also jump on the "L" which is a train that will take you right downtown, eliminating the need to park. This is just a couple blocks away also.

Biggest recommendation I can make is to stay at any of the five Official Host hotels, as they are all familiar with what we do, and have great deals and extra perks and you can park and walk or take the "L" wherever you would want to go.

ALSO, Saturday night the Johnny Lightning/Auto World die cast folks are hosting a 50th Anniversary dinner Saturday night right at the DoubleTree, which is pretty much our "party central" hotel More on that later!

Ask everyone and you will get plenty of idea's that will include stuff to keep any family member happy, whether a car person or not.

The way I'm reading the Mcacn web site the show is only Saturday-Sunday. Is there anything car related there going on Thursday-Friday. Is it private for car owners only during those days. Larry

I will be in Chicago on Friday for business but will be done around noon. Is the event open to spectators at all on Friday?
