A warm welcome awaits visitors to Galesburg, the Midwest’s hidden jewel! A city tied to Illinois by rails with one of the largest railroad yards in the United States--this railroad city has much to experience from unique shopping, antiques, arts, museums, walking tours, annual events and much more. Our beautiful Orpheum Theatre, built in the vaudeville days of early 1900s, offers many theatrical experiences. Galesburg’s overnight accommodations offer true convenience to out-of-town guests, and our one-of-a-kind and interesting restaurants await the opportunity to have you sample their food.

Whether you are here for business or pleasure, the Galesburg Area Convention and Visitors Bureau’s professional staff is available to provide guidance and assistance to ensure you feel welcome.

If you are interested in planning a meeting or touring our community, the CVB staff will provide complimentary convention services or on-site assistance to ensure you have an enjoyable visit. When in town, don’t forget to stop by our Welcome Center located at 2163 E. Main Street.

On behalf of the Galesburg CVB staff, the CVB Tourism Council, the Galesburg Chamber of Commerce and the City of Galesburg, we would like to welcome you to our community. We hope you enjoy our community as much as we do and that you will make Galesburg a regular stop on your future travels.
