What to check before you commit

Which kind of event this suits
907 seats is the largest room on record, so Sault Ste. Marie suits a training programme, a regional chapter meeting or a single-track conference rather than an exhibition.
- award ceremonies
1 fixed-seat house gives you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.
- 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 Sault Ste. Marie has them.
