Chicago to Host 2024 Democratic National Convention, Beating Out Atlanta.
Chicago has been chosen to host the 2024 Democratic National Convention, beating out Atlanta and New York City. The convention will be held at the United Center from August 19-22, 2024. Chicago's boosters argued that it was a bastion of Democratic Party values and that Illinois reflected the diversity of the nation. The city's location in the politically competitive Midwest was also a factor in the decision. Republicans plan to hold their 2024 national convention in Milwaukee, just north of Chicago.
