About Chicago Blackhawks vs. Columbus Blue Jackets

That timing tends to draw a different crowd than the weekend games: retirees, school groups on outings, and fans who've taken a half-day off work. Expect a lighter, more relaxed atmosphere in the concourses beforehand, with the game itself carrying the same physical, fast-paced hockey either side brings all season. It's a good option for anyone wanting to see the sport without the late finish.

Where to stay nearby

Chicago itself is the obvious base, with its huge hotel selection just a few kilometres from the arena and easy access by taxi, rideshare, or the CTA. Berwyn, a short distance further out, offers a smaller but more budget-friendly set of options for those happy with a slightly longer commute in. Des Plaines sits furthest out and suits travellers who'd rather stay near O'Hare or prefer a quieter, more suburban stay with a straightforward drive to the game.

Chicago — about 4 km away

Chicago puts you closest to the venue at just 4km away, making it ideal if you want walkable neighborhoods, dining, and nightlife within reach before and after your visit. With 162 hotels across the city, you'll find options at every price point and neighborhood.
