Frequently Asked Questions




Discover large capacity fashion show venues in Chicago

Chicago is a travel and culture hub, making it a smart place to hold a fashion show. Events are constantly coming to the Windy City so show venues are plentiful and affordable. Large capacity fashion show venues in Chicago include space for hundreds of guests and are flexibly laid out for showcasing apparel, photography, socializing, and more.
For example, Trendsapio is holding several fashion shows at The Sinclair Chicago Event Venue this year. Located just west of Millennium Park in downtown, The Sinclair offers 9,000 square feet of space for showcasing the hottest trends in the fashion world. Streeterville's Chez Event Space is just as well equipped and centrally located. Chez has on site seating for hundreds and the expertise to help you envision everything from the runway configuration to catering needs.

Unique venues for fashion shows in Chicago

Traditional downtown Chicago fashion show venues are excellent for keeping the focus on the models and their clothing. But what if you want a space that contributes to the overall aesthetic? Look no further than the Waldorf Astoria Chicago and its chateau-style architecture. Located a block away from the world-famous Magnificent Mile, the opulent surroundings will enhance how guests perceive each runway model. During and after the show, guests also have on-site access to a pilates studio, ballroom, spas, and other luxury experiences.
Luxury and fashion go hand in hand. But surrounding your runway models with fine art and culture is just as appealing. The Museum of Contemporary Art offers three event spaces suitable for weddings, fashion shows, corporate events, and more. The Edlis Neeson Theater and Kovler Atrium are the most popular choices.

Explore the best downtown Chicago fashion show venues

Whether you need Chicago venues with runway setup for fashion show or are looking for a space with flexible creative potential, this city has you covered. The most important thing is to explore the space beforehand. Start pre visualizing how runway models will enter and leave while maximizing their time in front of the audience. Communicating your needs to event staff will ensure you have plenty of directed lighting and other supporting technologies on hand. Even businesses that offer general-purpose spaces will be able to accommodate a fashion show with enough planning.
