Getting attendees to Racine
O'Hare International Airport (ORD) is 84 km (52 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
Local time is Chicago time (America/Chicago) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Mount Pleasant, Kenosha and Milwaukee are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Racine has nothing free on your dates.

Pricing this against a real Racine room
A Racine programme at 950 activated attendees — sized to Horlick Field, the largest stated capacity in the Racine dataset — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
- activated attendees
- 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 Racine 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 8,500 seats, Racine 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 Racine without renting a marquee.
- multi-track conferences
A 8,500-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 Racine is set up for.
- festivals
An arena or stadium floor at 8,500 takes an audience no conference venue in Racine can.
- sports tournaments
The same rooms already run fixtures, so load-in and crowd flow are solved.
