Worth knowing before you sign
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Bentonville dataset is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so a trade floor needs either an arena floor, a fairground, or a nearby city. Check the arena listings above before you promise exhibitors a booth plan.
No published capacities
Not one Bentonville venue publishes a capacity in the open sources behind this page. Every room on the list will quote you a number directly, but you cannot compare them before you call, so build a fortnight of venue calls into the plan.
The city is smaller than the market
61,791 people live in Bentonville itself, but about 606,000 live in the wider Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers, AR. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
Pricing this against a real Bentonville room
Take 240 people through the door in Bentonville — a mid-sized Bentonville programme, since no Bentonville venue publishes a capacity in open data. The first 50 activated attendees are free on every event, so only the rest are billed, and the total stops moving at 1,000 however many more turn up.

Matching the room to the format
No capacity is published for any Bentonville venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- community meetings
Nothing in Bentonville publishes a capacity, so start with the format that scales down: a single room, one track, no exhibition.
- networking mixers
A mixer works in almost any room, which makes it the safe first event in a new city.
