Frequently Asked Questions




Host your launch event in Chicago

When you've perfected a product and are ready to bring it to market a launch event is how you tell the world about your exciting creation. Launch events are upbeat, exciting, and informative. Yet the venue you choose plays a huge role in how well it will be received.
Are you looking to share the specs of the newest digital camera model to a technologically savvy audience who expects to ask questions after the presentation? A conference room or auditorium might be the best launch event space. For a winery looking to share their newest bottle with the world a more intimate space will encourage sampling and discussion. What sort of launch event do you have in mind?

Chicago venues with a stage for launch events in Chicago

Stages are important when considering where to hold a launch event. A stage gives the audience a clear view of the presenter while offering space for hundreds of people to gather. Professional stages are technologically well equipped, with lighting, speakers, projectors, and other devices on offer as part of the rental. All are also acoustically sound, ensuring sound carries in an efficient way.

The best places to host a launch event in Chicago

For a unique and unforgettable experience try hosting an event on or near Lake Michigan. Waterfront launch event locations in Chicago include lakeside mansions, cottages, houses, and beaches. You can even hold a launch event on a boat rental, complete with a stage and catering. Events of local significance can be held in community centers, historic auditoriums, and other venues that subtly remind attendees of the story of the city. Museums, art galleries, and gardens offer the benefit of beautiful, educational surroundings that you don't have to work so hard to decorate.
But what if you want extra space for posters, photographs, and other informative media displays? A warehouse or loft is a great venue to rent for a launch event. Warehouses and lofts are the closest thing to a blank slate you'll find. High ceilings and large windows provide an airy, expansive feel. The walls are the perfect canvas for your informative media and screens for projector displays. Lofts and warehouses provide a flexible space for discussion areas, booths, and socializing. Many also include parking, saving guests time and money trying to navigate Chicago's complex city parking schemes. If you can hold your venue at a place near the city's world-class public transit system, so much the better! Chicago offers endless options for a professional launch event!
