Donald E. Stephens Convention Center 5555 N. River Road 847-694-2220 (Admin. Offices)
The Donald E. Stephens Convention Center is located in Rosemont, Illinois, just minutes from O'Hare International Airport. The Center features 840,000 square feet of exhibition space for trade shows and public shows. There is parking available for 8,000 cars. A skybridge connects the Convention Center to parking and three hotels. Formerly named the Rosemont Convention Center, it was renamed to honor Donald E. Stephens, who founded the Village of Rosemont in 1956 and has been its mayor ever since. The Convention Center is also home to the Donald E. Stephens Museum
of Hummels. Here you'll see about a thousand M. I. Hummel figurines,
including one that is 8 feet tall. The museum began when Mayor Stephens
donated his collection to the Village of Rosemont in 1984. |
