The halls that take a trade floor
2 venues in Pittsburg are classified as exhibition or convention space. They are the only rooms here designed around a floor plan rather than a seating plan.
- Memorial Auditorium & Convention Centersize not published
- Parsons Convention Centersize not published
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.
Travel, time zone and arrival
Joplin Regional Airport (JLN) is 34 km (21 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
Local time is Chicago time (America/Chicago) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Joplin, Chanute and Bentonville are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Pittsburg has nothing free on your dates.

Worth knowing before you sign
Confirm the room before the date
Nothing in the Pittsburg record flags an unusual constraint, which in practice means the ordinary one applies: hold the venue before you announce the date, because a date without a room is the only mistake that cannot be fixed later.
The bill for a Pittsburg programme
Take 950 people through the door in Pittsburg — sized to Carnie Smith Stadium, the largest stated capacity in the Pittsburg dataset. 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.

- 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
