We are deeply committed to protecting the health and safety of you, your teams and the wider communities where we meet and do business. As a result of the pandemic challenges, now more than ever before, that commitment is our priority and we use it as a benchmark against which we make all decisions about hosting our in-person events.
We continue to work closely with the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center (DESCC), Rosemont Exhibition Services and the city of Rosemont, IL (located in Cook County) to monitor and adopt guidance from local and state authorities.
Visit Cook County Public Health to learn about the current COVID-19 mandates and requirements by which we abide.
Guidelines are subject to change and we ask that you refer to this site for the most up-to-date and official information.
As of February 28, 2022, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker has lifted both the mask and proof of vaccination mandates. You are not required to wear a face covering at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center nor provide proof of vaccination status.
