Getting attendees to Novato
San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is 57 km (35 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
Novato keeps Los Angeles time (America/Los_Angeles), which matters most for the remote speakers you are dialling in.
Petaluma, San Rafael and Richmond are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Novato has nothing free on your dates.

Before you hold a date
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Novato 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 Novato 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
57 km (35 mi) from SFO 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
52,311 people live in Novato itself, but about 4.6 million live in the wider San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
The bill for a Novato programme
A Novato programme at 240 activated attendees — a mid-sized Novato programme, since no Novato venue publishes a capacity in open data — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
- 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 Novato 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 Novato venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- award ceremonies
1 fixed-seat house gives you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.
