Top of the capacity range

Nothing in Dearborn is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so the largest rooms here are arenas, theatres and function spaces. The ceiling is 1,201 seats, at Michael A. Guido Theater.

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.

How people reach Dearborn

Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is 19 km (12 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.

Dearborn keeps Detroit time (America/Detroit), which matters most for the remote speakers you are dialling in.

Dearborn Heights, Detroit and Taylor are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Dearborn has nothing free on your dates.

The local constraints

No exhibition hall on record

Nothing in the Dearborn 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.

The city is smaller than the market

106,377 people live in Dearborn itself, but about 4.4 million live in the wider Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.

The bill for a Dearborn programme

Take 950 people through the door in Dearborn — sized to Michael A. Guido Theater, the largest stated capacity in the Dearborn dataset. 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.

$4,500for the whole event, at $5 each

You are billed for people, not for the venue, so the room you choose in Dearborn does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.

What sort of event fits here

The top of the range here is 1,201 seats, which comfortably covers an association annual meeting, a regional summit or a mid-sized user conference.

  • multi-track conferences

    A 1,201-seat room carries a plenary with breakouts running alongside it.

  • association annual meetings

    An association meeting needs one big room, several small ones and a hotel block, which is the combination Dearborn is set up for.

  • training days and workshops

    4 purpose-built function spaces are the easiest kind of room to run a workshop in — the power and the load-in already assume it.
