Every venue mapped in Redmond appears above. The ones with enough published detail to be worth reading have their own guide and are linked; the rest are named here, which is honest about what the record holds without giving each of them a page made of three facts.
Where an exhibition fits
3 venues in Redmond are classified as exhibition or convention space. They are the only rooms here designed around a floor plan rather than a seating plan.
- Deschutes County Fairgrounds Expo Centersize not published
- Bank of the Cascades Centersize not published
- Wheeler County Fairgroundssize 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.
Getting attendees to Redmond
Roberts Field (RDM) sits 3 km (1.9 mi) from the centre, close enough that a same-day arrival is realistic for most of your speakers.
The city runs on Los Angeles time (America/Los_Angeles). Schedules published in one zone and read in another are the most common cause of a half-empty first session.
Bend, Springfield and Eugene are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Redmond has nothing free on your dates.

Things that catch organizers out here
No published capacities
Not one Redmond 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
37,626 people live in Redmond itself, but about 264,000 live in the wider Bend, OR. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
A worked example, sized to Redmond
Take 240 people through the door in Redmond — a mid-sized Redmond programme, since no Redmond venue publishes a capacity in open data. 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.
- 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 Redmond does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
Which kind of event this suits
No capacity is published for any Redmond venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- trade shows and exhibitions
3 exhibition or convention halls mean a booth plan is possible in Redmond without renting a marquee.
- multi-track conferences
The exhibition space here doubles as plenary space when the floor is cleared.
- association annual meetings
An association meeting needs one big room, several small ones and a hotel block, which is the combination Redmond is set up for.
- training days and workshops
2 purpose-built function spaces are the easiest kind of room to run a workshop in — the power and the load-in already assume it.
- leadership retreats
Smaller rooms suit a retreat better than a hall does, and Redmond has them.
