DNC to Hold Convention in Chicago in 2024

Democratic National Convention to Take Place from August 19 to 22

Delegates, Activists, and Leaders to Gather in Chicago

The Democratic National Convention (DNC) has announced that its 2024 convention will be held in Chicago, Illinois. The convention will take place from August 19 to 22, 2024, just 90 miles south of Milwaukee, where the Republican National Convention will be held the following week.

The DNC is held every four years to nominate the Democratic Party's presidential and vice presidential candidates. The event brings together delegates, activists, and leaders from across the country to choose the party's standard-bearers for the general election.

The Chicago convention will be the first DNC held in Illinois since 1996. The city was also the site of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, which was marked by protests and violence amid the Vietnam War.

The DNC is expected to draw tens of thousands of visitors to Chicago, boosting the city's economy and showcasing its vibrant culture and hospitality.
