Where an exhibition fits
One venue in Texarkana is classified as exhibition or convention space.
- Texarkana Convention Center Parkingsize 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.
Arrival logistics
Texarkana Regional Airport (TXK) sits 6 km (3.7 mi) from the centre, close enough that a same-day arrival is realistic for most of your speakers.
The city runs on Chicago time (America/Chicago). Schedules published in one zone and read in another are the most common cause of a half-empty first session.
Texarkana, Marshall and Shreveport are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Texarkana has nothing free on your dates.

The local constraints
No published capacities
Not one Texarkana venue publishes a capacity in the open sources behind this page. Every room on the list will quote you a number directly, but you cannot compare them before you call, so build a fortnight of venue calls into the plan.
The city is smaller than the market
35,971 people live in Texarkana itself, but about 146,000 live in the wider Texarkana, TX-AR. Your local audience is far bigger than the city line suggests, and so is the commute your day-rate attendees will make.
A worked example, sized to Texarkana
A Texarkana programme at 240 activated attendees — a mid-sized Texarkana programme, since no Texarkana venue publishes a capacity in open data — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
- activated attendees
- 240activated attendees
- billable, after the first 50 are free
- 190billable, after the first 50 are free
- for the whole event, at $5 each
- $950for the whole event, at $5 each
You are billed for people, not for the venue, so the room you choose in Texarkana does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
Which kind of event this suits
No capacity is published for any Texarkana venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- trade shows and exhibitions
1 exhibition or convention hall means a booth plan is possible in Texarkana without renting a marquee.
- multi-track conferences
The exhibition space here doubles as plenary space when the floor is cleared.
- association annual meetings
An association meeting needs one big room, several small ones and a hotel block, which is the combination Texarkana is set up for.
- 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.
- leadership retreats
Smaller rooms suit a retreat better than a hall does, and Texarkana has them.
