Arrival logistics
Memphis International Airport (MEM) is 16 km (9.9 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
The city runs on Chicago time (America/Chicago). Schedules published in one zone and read in another are the most common cause of a half-empty first session.
Southaven, Collierville and Horn Lake are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Olive Branch has nothing free on your dates.

Worth knowing before you sign
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Olive Branch 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 Olive Branch 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
47,365 people live in Olive Branch itself, but about 1.3 million live in the wider Memphis, TN-MS-AR. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.

- training days and workshops
1 purpose-built function space is the easiest kind of room to run a workshop in — the power and the load-in already assume it.

Smaller rooms suit a retreat better than a hall does, and Olive Branch has them.
