The Chicago Market: Living and Giving 2014

The Nation’s longest running gift show just got better.

The Chicago Gift Market at the Merchandise Mart takes place four times a year in our hundreds of gift and home showrooms (January, March, July and September), offering the addition of more than 500 temporary exhibitors each January and July.

A re-merchandised floor makes your shopping experience more convenient than ever.

The largest handcrafted show in the Midwest has been expanded to offer you even more options, including a larger selection of Fair Trade certified vendors.

More events both on and off the show floor will be offered. From buyer snack breaks to informational coffee and conversations, we’re adding attractive new options.

Affordable hotels allow you to stay in the center of Chicago for as low as $98 a night.

Travel Discounts reduce your Amtrak and MegaBus tickets up to 50%.

Free Parking lets the first 2,500 buyers park right outside the Merchandise Mart for free.

Experience Winter Market in the city by spending your days at the Mart discovering new lines and vendors. Catch up with old friends and make new connections. Then step outside and experience world-class dining and entertainment within walking distance.
