The largest rooms on record
Nothing in South Suffolk is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so the largest rooms here are arenas, theatres and function spaces. The ceiling is 5,000 seats, at Garrison Stadium.
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.
Travel, time zone and arrival
Norfolk International Airport (ORF) is 40 km (25 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 New York time (America/New_York). Schedules published in one zone and read in another are the most common cause of a half-empty first session.
Suffolk, Portsmouth Heights and Portsmouth are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if South Suffolk has nothing free on your dates.
