The largest rooms on record
Nothing in Airdrie is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so the largest rooms here are arenas, theatres and function spaces. The ceiling is 2,500 seats, at Badlands Ampitheatre.
Capacities are the figure the venue or an encyclopaedia entry published. They are usually the seated maximum, and the same room in banquet or reception layout can differ by half. Confirm the layout you want before you plan around a number.
Getting attendees to Airdrie
Calgary International Airport (YYC) is 21 km (13 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
Airdrie keeps Edmonton time (America/Edmonton), which matters most for the remote speakers you are dialling in.
Calgary, Red Deer and Elkford are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Airdrie has nothing free on your dates.
