Every venue mapped in Dickson appears above. The ones with enough published detail to be worth reading have their own guide and are linked; the rest are named here, which is honest about what the record holds without giving each of them a page made of three facts.
Flights, time and distance
Nashville International Airport (BNA) is 64 km (40 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
Local time is Chicago time (America/Chicago) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Franklin, Clarksville and Spring Hill are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Dickson has nothing free on your dates.

Before you hold a date
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Dickson 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 Dickson 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.
Arrival is a half-day
64 km (40 mi) from BNA means most attendees lose a morning to travel. Open registration the evening before and put nothing you care about in the first slot.
The city is smaller than the market
16,878 people live in Dickson itself, but about 2.2 million live in the wider Nashville-Davidson--Murfreesboro--Franklin, TN. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
A worked example, sized to Dickson
Suppose 240 attendees claim their invite and open the app at a Dickson event a mid-sized Dickson programme, since no Dickson venue publishes a capacity in open data. Here is exactly what event67 charges, with the free 50 taken off the top.
- activated attendees
- 240activated attendees
- billable, after the first 50 are free
- 190billable, after the first 50 are free
- for the whole event, at $5 each
- $950for the whole event, at $5 each
You are billed for people, not for the venue, so the room you choose in Dickson does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
Which kind of event this suits
No capacity is published for any Dickson venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- training days and workshops
2 purpose-built function spaces are the easiest kind of room to run a workshop in — the power and the load-in already assume it.
- leadership retreats
Smaller rooms suit a retreat better than a hall does, and Dickson has them.
