Every venue mapped in Stratford appears above. The ones with enough published detail to be worth reading have their own guide and are linked; the rest are named here, which is honest about what the record holds without giving each of them a page made of three facts.

Top of the capacity range

Nothing in Stratford is classified as a convention or exhibition centre, so the largest rooms here are arenas, theatres and function spaces. The ceiling is 2,828 seats, at William Allman Memorial Arena.

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

Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is 112 km (70 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 Toronto time (America/Toronto). Schedules published in one zone and read in another are the most common cause of a half-empty first session.

Kitchener, Waterloo and London are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Stratford has nothing free on your dates.

Before you hold a date

No exhibition hall on record

Nothing in the Stratford 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.

Arrival is a half-day

112 km (70 mi) from YYZ means most attendees lose a morning to travel. Open registration the evening before and put nothing you care about in the first slot.

The bill for a Stratford programme

A Stratford programme at 950 activated attendees — sized to William Allman Memorial Arena, the largest stated capacity in the Stratford dataset — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.

You are billed for people, not for the venue, so the room you choose in Stratford does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.

What sort of event fits here

The top of the range here is 2,828 seats, which comfortably covers an association annual meeting, a regional summit or a mid-sized user conference.

  • multi-track conferences

    A 2,828-seat room carries a plenary with breakouts running alongside it.

  • association annual meetings

    An association meeting needs one big room, several small ones and a hotel block, which is the combination Stratford is set up for.

  • award ceremonies

    7 fixed-seat houses give you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.

  • 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.
