How people reach Dalton
Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (CHA) is 36 km (22 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
Dalton keeps New York time (America/New_York), which matters most for the remote speakers you are dialling in.
East Chattanooga, Chattanooga and Cleveland are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Dalton has nothing free on your dates.

Worth knowing before you sign
No published capacities
Not one Dalton 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
34,970 people live in Dalton itself, but about 146,000 live in the wider Dalton, GA. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
