On-Campus Parking

On-campus parking is limited, so we recommend securing alternative means of transportation to Reunion activities. Permits are required for all surface campus lots and ticketing is enforced Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Campus parking is free after 4 p.m. on Friday and all day on Saturday and Sunday. If you decide to drive to campus, allow extra time to park and locate the Kellogg Global Hub (2211 Campus Drive, Evanston).

Parking Garages

Limited general parking is available in the North Campus Parking Garage (2311 Campus Drive, Evanston) which is closest to the Kellogg Global Hub. Additional parking may be available in the South Campus Parking Garage (1841 Campus Drive, Evanston).

Ride Share Drop Off

There is a set drop off location for Uber, Lyft and Taxi transport outside of the Kellogg Global Hub in the circle drive (2211 Campus Drive, Evanston).


Hotel Shuttles

Kellogg will be providing two shuttles to transport alumni and guests from different locations in Evanston to the hub.

The key destinations are as follows:

  • Maple Ave & Foster Street Surface Parking lot
  • Holiday Inn Evanston
  • The Hyatt House

Airports

Alumni booking air travel may choose one of Chicago's two airports: O'Hare International airport or Midway International airport.

O’Hare Airport (ORD) is approximately 18 miles from the Evanston campus and 45 minutes by car. Midway Airport (MDW) is approximately 26 miles from the Evanston campus and an hour by car. Travel times are heavily affected by Chicago area traffic conditions, so please plan accordingly.

Car service including limos, taxis and ride-sharing options such as Uber and Lyft are readily available at both airports. Due to the number of transfers required, public transportation is not recommended when traveling from either airport to Evanston.
