What Are You Doing This Valentine’s Day? The 2019 Chicago Auto Show Is the Perfect Date Night

And the place to celebrate date nights of the past — with your family!
Baby, it’s cold outside. Shed those layers and get your steps in a warm, carpeted environment with your honey. The Chicago Auto Show is the perfect place! And while you’re there, do some Spring dreaming and shop for your next car.
Millions of Square Feet of Cars, Technology and Design, All Under One Roof
McCormick Place is the perfect place for the auto show. It’s big enough to not only hold the show but several fun indoor ride and drive opportunities including one from Jeep and one from Land Rover. There are restaurants and cafes right inside the center and to cap the day with a romantic dinner, head to the Hyatt next door or to the Marriott Marquis–connected through a series of walkways so you never have to go outside!
But the best part is all the cars! The show has a number of new cars that make their global debut, as well as the newest cars on the market. Show visitors can get in, take a look around, ask questions, take photos and get pricing information before going to a dealership for a test drive.
We toured the show and here are some of the best exhibits and vehicles on display. Happy shopping!
