About ASCO Annual Meeting
The ASCO Annual Meeting, the American Society of Clinical Oncology's yearly congress, returns to McCormick Place in Chicago from Friday 4 to Tuesday 8 June 2027.
It is a delegate congress rather than a trade fair: oncologists, researchers, nurses and industry come for the scientific programme, the late-breaking abstracts and the exhibit hall, and ASCO counts more than 44,000 total attendees from 166 countries at the 2025 meeting.
Registration and hotel reservations open in December 2026, first for ASCO members and then for everyone, and both are handled by ASCO's official provider. With five days and very large crowds, where you stay matters: the South Loop is closest to McCormick Place, while the Loop, River North and Streeterville give more choice, a train or taxi ride away.
This page shows live hotel rates near McCormick Place for your dates.
Who attends
Oncologists, cancer researchers, nurses and other oncology professionals, plus industry exhibitors and sponsors. Delegates register with ASCO.
