Every venue mapped in Dyersburg 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.

Where an exhibition fits

2 venues in Dyersburg are classified as exhibition or convention space. They are the only rooms here designed around a floor plan rather than a seating plan.

  • Mississippi County Fairgrounds West Entrancesize not published
  • Raymond Phillips Exhibit Hallsize 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.

How people reach Dyersburg

McKellar-Sipes Regional Airport (MKL) 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.

Jackson, Sikeston and Bartlett are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Dyersburg has nothing free on your dates.

Before you hold a date

No published capacities

Not one Dyersburg 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 MKL means most attendees lose a morning to travel. Open registration the evening before and put nothing you care about in the first slot.

A worked example, sized to Dyersburg

Suppose 240 attendees claim their invite and open the app at a Dyersburg event a mid-sized Dyersburg programme, since no Dyersburg venue publishes a capacity in open data. Here is exactly what event67 charges, with the free 50 taken off the top.

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 Dyersburg 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 Dyersburg venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.

  • trade shows and exhibitions

    2 exhibition or convention halls mean a booth plan is possible in Dyersburg without renting a marquee.

  • multi-track conferences

    The exhibition space here doubles as plenary space when the floor is cleared.

  • association annual meetings

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

  • award ceremonies

    1 fixed-seat house gives you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.
