The halls that take a trade floor
2 venues in Saint Joseph are classified as exhibition or convention space. They are the only rooms here designed around a floor plan rather than a seating plan.
- St. Joseph Convention Centersize not published
- Buchanan 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.
Flights, time and distance
Kansas City International Airport (MCI) is 54 km (34 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.
Leavenworth, Liberty and Kansas City are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Saint Joseph has nothing free on your dates.
