Vendor Package 

The Metropolis of Chicago will host its 2025 Clergy-Laity Assembly at the Meridian Banquet & Conference Center in Rolling Meadows, Illinois on November 5 – 6, 2025.   We are inviting vendors to display and sell items that are of interest to the delegates who will be attending the Assembly.   The charge for vendors who will be selling wares is $300 per table.  There are a limited number of 6′ skirted tables available and applications will be considered on a first-come, first-served basis. Please apply as soon as possible. The form will close on September 30, 2025.

Vendors will be in a high traffic area in the foyer of the conference center.  Assembly delegates will pass by the vendor booths on their way to all meetings and events, and also during meals. Vendor hours will be from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. each day.  Set up may begin on Tuesday afternoon, November 4th and break down must be completed by Thursday at 4 p.m.  Final logistics will be sent to registered vendors prior to the Assembly.

If you need hotel accommodations during the Clergy Laity Assembly, a block of rooms has been reserved at a group rate at the nearby Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel, 1551 Thoreau Dr N, Schaumburg, IL.  The special discounted room rate is $169 plus tax, where applicable. The hotel is less than a 10-minute drive from the Meridian.  Reservations must be made by Tuesday, October 14, 2025, after which the room block will be released.  Click HERE to make your hotel reservation.
