Travel, time zone and arrival
Logan International Airport (BOS) is 35 km (22 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
Local time is New York time (America/New_York) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Framingham Center, Wellesley and Marlborough are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Framingham has nothing free on your dates.

Before you hold a date
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Framingham 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 Framingham 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
73,361 people live in Framingham itself, but about 5.0 million live in the wider Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
Pricing this against a real Framingham room
Take 240 people through the door in Framingham — a mid-sized Framingham programme, since no Framingham venue publishes a capacity in open data. 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.
- activated 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 Framingham does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
Matching the room to the format
No capacity is published for any Framingham venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.

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