The University of Chicago’s 2025 Convocation ceremony will take place on Saturday, June 7, 2025. Because several trade shows and conventions are also taking place during Convocation Weekend, hotel availability in the city of Chicago will be limited. With this in mind, we highly recommend that all hotel or alternative lodging arrangements be reserved as soon as possible.
Below please find a list of recommended hotels both local to Hyde Park and in downtown Chicago. Contact hotels directly to learn more about rates and availability during Convocation weekend.
