Chicago is the trade-show capital of North America — McCormick Place runs IMTS, RSNA, NRA, the Auto Show, and IPPE, each pulling 50,000+ attendees. Beyond McCormick we cover three other layers: Loop and Fulton Market corporate events (the city's anchor agency and tech corridor), Magnificent Mile retail openings, and lakefront festival sampling (Lollapalooza, Taste of Chicago, Air & Water Show). Captains know the McCormick freight elevator schedule, IATSE / Teamsters Local 814 jurisdiction lines, and Loop load-in commute reality. Exhibitor program leads, agency producers, and Mag Mile retail launch teams are our anchor buyer. Cold-weather uniform protocol on every winter outdoor call. All staff are 100% W-2 and fully insured.
McCormick Place anchors the market — IMTS, RSNA, IPPE, NRA, the Chicago Auto Show — plus Allstate Arena in Rosemont and McCormick Place West / Lakeside annexes.

Questions Schaumburg buyers ask about trade show staff.
Do you staff the major convention venues in Schaumburg?+
Yes. We staff trade shows at the primary convention venues throughout Chicago, and our captains know the load-in routines, badge protocols, and union-jurisdiction quirks at each one. Send us the show, hall, and booth number and we'll match staff who have already worked that venue when possible.
Can your Schaumburg trade show staff run iPad demos and lead capture?+
Yes — our booth staff are trained on Cvent LeadCapture, iCapture, Captello, and most badge-scanning platforms, plus iPad-based product demos and custom CRM workflows. Send us the lead-cap tool and product brief 5-7 days out and we'll pre-train the Schaumburg crew before show open.
How big a booth crew do I need for a Schaumburg trade show?+
Rule of thumb: one staffer per 100 sq ft of booth, doubled for high-traffic shows. A 20x20 booth at a major Schaumburg convention typically runs 4-6 staff per shift; a 30x30 runs 8-10. We'll size the crew to your booth strategy (attractors vs. lead-qualifiers vs. demo staff) once we see the floor plan.
Are your Schaumburg booth staff W-2 and fully insured?+
Yes. Every trade show staffer Showcraft sends to a Schaumburg booth is a W-2 employee with general liability, workers' comp, and auto coverage. We issue COIs naming the venue, show, and exhibitor before move-in day. In California, our payroll structure is fully AB-5 / AB-2257 compliant.
