It has come to our attention that Northwestern University changed their schedule after we booked this years faire. We try and post the faire as soon as possible so those who are planning to attend can make vacation plans early. As such, we have used the initial Northwestern Schedule to plan for the faire. This has worked fine for years but apparently not this year.
Having a football game the day of the faire is really no big deal but hotel space can be affected as many people stay overnight when they play home games. The following hotels and prices as of May 1st are a short drive/Uber/Cab Ride from the faire:
Extended Stay America Suites- Chicago - Skokie ($180 - 6 miles)
Super 8 by Wyndham Morton Grove/Chicago ($135 - 8 miles)
Red Roof Inn Morton Grove ($110 - 8 miles)
Holiday Inn & Suites Chicago North Shore (Skokie) by IHG ($190 - 10 miles)
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Chicago North Shore - Niles by IHG ($195 - 11 miles)
