How Does Live Printing Work?

Here's the flow at a typical Chicago event:

It works at nearly any Chicagoland venue — McCormick Place, Navy Pier — Festival Hall, a hotel ballroom, or an outdoor lot — indoors or out. Tell us about your event and we'll map the setup.

A Chicago job runs in four moves. We confirm the room and the load-in window — at McCormick Place that means a dock time and a drayage slot; in a The Loop space it usually just means a door and a lift. Chicago sits 1,732 miles out, so gear ships freight and the crew lands a day early. We build and test the station before doors. Then we print live, and strike around your run-of-show. Date changes are easiest with two weeks' notice because of freight.

Date, venue, guest count. That's all we need to price a Chicago setup.
