Chicago Cubs Convention

Fight the winter blahs by bringing the family to the 2015 Chicago Cubs Convention January 16-18 at the Sheraton Hotel expo center and stay at the nearby and (much more) affordable Best Western Plus Chicago Hotel at Hillside!

Celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Chicago Cubs Convention! Meet and greet Chicago Cubs players, coaches and broadcasters! Fans will enjoy autograph and photo sessions, question and answer seminars, interactive exhibits, a children’s play area and much more! A percentage of the proceeds for the 2015 Chicago Cubs Convention will be donated to Cubs Charities. To date, the convention has raised four million dollars.

Is there anyone on the planet who doesn’t know the storied history of one of the oldest major league ball clubs in the country and their historic playground, Wrigley Field? The lore of the Chicago Cubs has led to a smash hit play, “The Bleacher Bums,” a host of short stories and even a hit song by the late great Steve Goodman, “The Cubs Are Going to Win Today.” (Rumor has it that Goodman’s ashes are buried in the ball park.)

The 2015 Chicago Cubs Convention is located at the Sheraton Hotel, 2301 East North Water Street. For tickets and more information, go to www.chicagocubs.com.

Best Western Plus Chicago Hotel at Hillside, just a short trip to Chicago’s near north side and a very affordable alternative for pricey near-north-side hotels, provides free shuttle service to and from O’Hare Airport in Chicago. The hotel offers affordable, comfortable rooms, a breakfast bar and restaurant and much more. The hotel is pet friendly and offers AAA rates.
