Convention and exhibition space
2 venues in Hillsboro are classified as exhibition or convention space. They are the only rooms here designed around a floor plan rather than a seating plan.
- Hillsboro Airport/Fairgrounds Substation396 seats

Getting attendees to Hillsboro
Portland International Airport (PDX) is 31 km (19 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
