Travel, time zone and arrival
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) is 89 km (55 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
The city runs on Indianapolis time (America/Indiana/Indianapolis). Schedules published in one zone and read in another are the most common cause of a half-empty first session.
Oxford, Middletown and Hamilton are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Richmond has nothing free on your dates.

What to check before you commit
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Richmond 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 Richmond 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.
Arrival is a half-day
89 km (55 mi) from CVG means most attendees lose a morning to travel. Open registration the evening before and put nothing you care about in the first slot.
What event67 costs for a Richmond event
Suppose 240 attendees claim their invite and open the app at a Richmond event a mid-sized Richmond programme, since no Richmond venue publishes a capacity in open data. Here is exactly what event67 charges, with the free 50 taken off the top.
- 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 Richmond does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
By event type
No capacity is published for any Richmond venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- 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.
- leadership retreats
Smaller rooms suit a retreat better than a hall does, and Richmond has them.
