Cboe Global Markets Trading Floor

Founded in 1973 as the birthplace of listed options, Cboe Global Markets operates the largest options exchange in the U.S. In June 2022, Cboe unveiled its new trading floor in the historic Chicago Board of Trade building. Spanning two floors and occupying more than 40,000 square feet, the customized space features double-height, floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook Chicago's historic LaSalle Street financial district. The high-tech infrastructure supports seamless interaction between traders who value the vibrant open outcry experience.

From the 8th floor in the Chicago Board of Trade building, take in the expansive Cboe trading floor with open outcry “pits.” Try on a real trading jacket and imagine yourself in the fast-paced, exciting world of options trading! Follow Cboe on Instagram to access selfie filters and explore an interactive, virtual 3D model of the trading pits.

The Cboe trading floor tour is included on Saturday visits.
