Hire ip licensing & custom characters
in Chicago.

We design and develop a custom character (with story, voice, and look) that your brand can deploy across multiple events and seasons.

Showcraft serves Chicago and the surrounding IL area with 100% W-2 talent, full insurance, and senior captains on every event. Chicago is the trade-show capital of North America. McCormick Place runs IMTS, RSNA, NRA, the Auto Show, and IPPE — each a 50,000+ attendee week — and we staff exhibitor booths, lead-capture leads, and brand-activation crews across all four McCormick buildings. Beyond McCormick we cover Loop corporate events, Magnificent Mile retail openings, festival sampling along the lakefront (Lollapalooza, Taste of Chicago, Air & Water Show), and family days at Wrigley Field and Guaranteed Rate Field. Our Chicago captains know the McCormick freight elevator schedule, the union jurisdictions for booth setup, and how to actually get a 25-person crew through Loop-area load-in during commute hours.
