WEKSOS & FATLACE PRESENTS: WEKFEST CHICAGO 8.20.11
We are coming to Chicago for our second stop on the WEKFEST Tour 2011 presented by WEKSOS and FATLACE! Come experience what is arguably the best car culture event in the U.S. The finest builds from all over the midwest will be on display. We are not like the big corporate shows of the past, each car is carefully handpicked. With WEKFEST we want to make sure that car culture is properly represented through the cars we showcase, event production, and taking care of our community. By maintaining a high level of integrity we are showing the world that it is not “just a car” and WEKFEST is not just a show.

I'm certainly looking to attend. For those in the Chicago area, anyone recommend a hotel to stay at or spots to hit while in town? Any s2k guys out there want to have a mini-meet that weekend? I'm from southern Ohio so if I come I'll prolly be posted up in Chicago for the weekend!

Unfortunately there aren't a lot of hotel options immediately near the convention center, but there is a variety of public transportation options to get from the Loop and River North areas of Chicago down to McCormick Place. Every now and then, the Embassy Suites on State Street near Ohio Street has good prices, and although it's a bit further, I can personally recommend the Chicago Metro Crowne Plaza in Greektown on Halsted Street. I might be able to get a special rate at the latter, too, as I was in charge of hosting a convention of ~200 people there this past February and got to know a number of the sales staff pretty well.

We should be having a weekly friday meet that day. If you want to, you can stop by my place before hand and I'll help you wash it. I'm in the North suburbs right off of the 294 highway.
