Where an exhibition fits
One venue in Trois-Rivières is classified as exhibition or convention space.
- Parc de l'Exposition de Trois-Rivièressize 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.
Travel, time zone and arrival
Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB) is 102 km (63 mi) away, far enough that arrival day is genuinely a travel day and a first session before noon will lose people.
Local time is Toronto time (America/Toronto) — set every session time in the app to that zone and let attendees' phones do the conversion.
Shawinigan, Drummondville and Saint-Hyacinthe are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Trois-Rivières has nothing free on your dates.

Things that catch organizers out here
Arrival is a half-day
102 km (63 mi) from YQB means most attendees lose a morning to travel. Open registration the evening before and put nothing you care about in the first slot.
A worked example, sized to Trois-Rivières
Take 950 people through the door in Trois-Rivières — sized to Colisée Vidéotron, the largest stated capacity in the Trois-Rivières dataset. The first 50 activated attendees are free on every event, so only the rest are billed, and the total stops moving at 1,000 however many more turn up.
- activated attendees
- 950activated attendees
- billable, after the first 50 are free
- 900billable, after the first 50 are free
- for the whole event, at CA$7 each
- CA$6,300for the whole event, at CA$7 each
You are billed for people, not for the venue, so the room you choose in Trois-Rivières does not change this figure. Nothing is charged for an attendee who registers and never opens the app.
Which kind of event this suits
The top of the range here is 4,500 seats, which comfortably covers an association annual meeting, a regional summit or a mid-sized user conference.
- trade shows and exhibitions
1 exhibition or convention hall means a booth plan is possible in Trois-Rivières without renting a marquee.
- multi-track conferences
A 4,500-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 Trois-Rivières is set up for.
- award ceremonies
4 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.
