Exhibition-scale rooms in Overland Park

One venue in Overland Park is classified as exhibition or convention space.

Capacities are the figure the venue or an encyclopaedia entry published. They are usually the seated maximum, and the same room in banquet or reception layout can differ by half. Confirm the layout you want before you plan around a number.

How people reach Overland Park

Kansas City International Airport (MCI) is 35 km (22 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.

Overland Park keeps Chicago time (America/Chicago), which matters most for the remote speakers you are dialling in.

Lenexa, Shawnee and Kansas City are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Overland Park has nothing free on your dates.

Worth knowing before you sign

The city is smaller than the market

202,893 people live in Overland Park itself, but about 2.3 million live in the wider Kansas City, MO-KS. 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 Overland Park room

Suppose 950 attendees claim their invite and open the app at a Overland Park event sized to Shawnee Mission District Stadium, the largest stated capacity in the Overland Park dataset. Here is exactly what event67 charges, with the free 50 taken off the top.

950activated attendees
billable, after the first 50 are free
900billable, after the first 50 are free
for the whole event, at $5 each
$4,500for the whole event, at $5 each

You are billed for people, not for the venue, so the room you choose in Overland Park does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.

Matching the room to the format

With a stated ceiling of 6,150 seats, Overland Park can carry a full trade show or a multi-track annual meeting without splitting the audience across buildings.

  • trade shows and exhibitions

    1 exhibition or convention hall means a booth plan is possible in Overland Park without renting a marquee.

  • multi-track conferences

    A 6,150-seat room carries a plenary with breakouts running alongside it.

  • association annual meetings

    An association meeting needs one big room, several small ones and a hotel block, which is the combination Overland Park is set up for.

  • training days and workshops

    4 purpose-built function spaces are the easiest kind of room to run a workshop in — the power and the load-in already assume it.
