We’re excited that you are here for the first year of CollectedCon! In choosing a venue for the convention we considered a lot of options but kept coming back to finding a spot that was not just the right size for us, but also offered a ton of amenities to the a endees — we think we nailed it by choosing the beautiful Aon Grand Ballroom here at Navy Pier!

Show Hours 10am-6pm VIP Entry: 9am

Restrooms The nearest restrooms are just west of the Ballroom in the hall, with more located throughout the pier.

Blind Box Trading & Lounge Area Have duplicate blind box toys you’d like to trade or just need to take a break? Head out from the main exhibit floor and go up the stairs for our designated blind box trading area (no sales please, trades only) or to find a comfy spot to have a breather or meet up with friends.

Food and Drink Navy Pier has a plethora of dining options from casual to upscale including a beer garden (which is the closest option), 10 sit-down restaurants, and a food court located approximately half way down the pier (inside).
