- Daphne Civic Centersize not published
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.
Flights, time and distance
Mobile Regional Airport (MOB) is 34 km (21 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
Local time is Chicago time (America/Chicago) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Mobile, Pensacola and East Pensacola Heights are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Daphne has nothing free on your dates.

What to check before you commit
No published capacities
Not one Daphne 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
30,751 people live in Daphne itself, but about 262,000 live in the wider Daphne-Fairhope-Foley, AL. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
