How people reach Modesto
San Jose International Airport (SJC) is 88 km (55 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
Local time is Los Angeles time (America/Los_Angeles) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Oakdale, Turlock and Manteca are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Modesto has nothing free on your dates.

Worth knowing before you sign
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Modesto 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 Modesto 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
88 km (55 mi) from SJC means most attendees lose a morning to travel. Open registration the evening before and put nothing you care about in the first slot.
The bill for a Modesto programme
Take 240 people through the door in Modesto — a mid-sized Modesto programme, since no Modesto 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
- 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 Modesto does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
What sort of event fits here
No capacity is published for any Modesto venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- award ceremonies
2 fixed-seat houses give you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.
- 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 Modesto has them.
