Where to stay near The Powder Show 2027 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center

The Powder Show brings together the entire dry processing and bulk handling community under one roof in Rosemont, just minutes from Chicago O'Hare. OEMs, process engineers and plant executives attend every other year to source equipment and compare solutions across food, pharmaceutical, chemical, plastics, metals and building materials. The 2027 edition runs April 27-29 and features a two-day conference programme alongside a free expo floor with more than 350 suppliers. Sessions are led by working engineers and cover process safety, automation, powder characterisation and material conveying, so teams leave with practical ideas they can apply to their own lines. With over 3,000 attendees from around 30 countries, the show is also a place to negotiate contracts, spot emerging technologies and refresh a plant's technical roadmap. The Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, connected to three official hotels via the Rosemont Skybridge, makes commuting between sessions and rooms straightforward.
