Top of the capacity range
Nothing in Starkville is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so the largest rooms here are arenas, theatres and function spaces. The ceiling is 61,337 seats, at Davis Wade 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
Golden Triangle Regional Airport (GTR) is 21 km (13 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
Local time is Chicago time (America/Chicago) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Columbus, Tupelo and Tuscaloosa are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Starkville has nothing free on your dates.
