Morris Inn

The AI Forum will take place at the Morris Inn, located at the heart of Notre Dame’s storied campus.  If the Morris Inn has reached capacity, we suggest trying the nearby Embassy Suites, just a short walk from the Morris.

By Air to South Bend

The campus is located approximately 15 minutes from South Bend International Airport. Taxicabs are available at the airport, as well as car rental services. Driving directions from the airport are below:

  • Turn left out of the airport entrance onto Lincoln Way West.
  • Once in downtown South Bend, turn left on Michigan Street (Indiana 933).
  • Continue to Angela Boulevard, the second stoplight north of the St. Joseph River
  • Turn right on Angela Boulevard
  • Turn left on Notre Dame Avenue

Traveling from Chicago

Alternatively, ground transportation is available from Chicago, located 90 miles west of South Bend.

Bus

Coach USA maintains a bus shuttle several times daily between campus and both O’Hare International and Chicago Midway Airports.

Train

The South Shore Line runs directly from downtown Chicago (Millennium Station located at the corner of Michigan and Randolph streets) to South Bend Regional Airport.

Car

The campus is approximately two hours by car from O'Hare International Airport and an hour and one half from Midway. From O’Hare:

  • Take I-190 east from the airport and merge onto I-90 East (Kennedy Expressway)
  • Merge with I-94 South (Dan Ryan Expressway)
  • Take the Skyway exit off the Dan Ryan Expressway and follow I-90 to the Indiana Toll Road, which merges with I-80
