CHICAGO — The National Restaurant Association (NRA) announced that the annual National Restaurant Association Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show will remain at Chicago's McCormick Place through 2011.
After thorough evaluations of other possible host cities, the NRA signed a new five-year agreement with the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority (MPEA) and the Chicago Convention and Tourism Bureau (CCTB).
"Chicago is a world-class destination which provides outstanding business facilities and services coupled with the great culinary, cultural and entertainment attractions that our exhibitors and attendees expect," said Steven C. Anderson, president and chief executive officer of the National Restaurant Association. "No other city tradeshow venue can, at this time, better satisfy the needs of the growing restaurant industry like McCormick Place."
