Wintrust Sports Complex at Bedford Park

This state-of-the-art indoor center is the premier destination for sports tourism in Chicagoland and beyond. You’ll feel right at home in Bedford Park, a town known for its hospitality. Just 10 minutes from Midway airport and 5 minutes from a plethora of manicured hotels – it’s the perfect location!

In developing Wintrust Sports Complex, the town of Bedford Park sought an opportunity to drive more “heads in beds” to community that has already proven the ability to support several hotel properties. This sports tourism destination provides an additional draw to the area and has already been a catalyst for growth.
