Conference venues in Texas

The Texas picture for an organizer — 1,217 venues across 108 cities, ranked by what the record can prove rather than by marketing copy.

AT&T Stadium states the largest capacity in the state. The dots show what event67 would bill at that head count, and where the price stops.

What the record holds

Texas is a state of United States of about 29 million people. Austin is the capital, though Houston is the largest city.

Counted by purpose, Texas holds 76 exhibition or convention halls, 129 dedicated conference and function spaces, 325 arenas and stadiums, 88 theatres and concert halls and 599 independent event spaces.

Texas spans 2 time zones — Chicago time and Denver time. Publish one zone in the app and say which it is, or half the room arrives an hour out.

The largest stated capacity anywhere in the state is 105,000, which is the practical ceiling for a single-room programme here.

Top of the capacity range

Ranked by stated capacity, then by how much the record can prove. Open data rarely publishes a capacity for a convention centre, so a hall may sit below an arena here without being the smaller room.

2 more towns have a venue worth its own guide

The town itself is too thinly mapped for a city guide, but the venue publishes enough to stand on its own.

Also in Texas, with nothing mapped yet to build a guide from: Pharr, Rowlett, Celina and Fort Stockton. They appear here rather than as pages with three facts on them.

The bill, at Texas scale

A Texas programme at 950 activated attendees — sized to AT&T Stadium in Arlington, the largest stated capacity in the Texas dataset — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.

Questions people actually ask

Which Texas city is best for a conference?

It depends on how many people you need to seat and how they arrive. Houston has the deepest venue list in this state, while Austin, the capital, carries the government and association calendar. The table above ranks every covered city by how many venues are mapped in it, which is the closest proxy to choice you will get before you start calling.

How many event venues are there in Texas?

1,217 venues across 108 cities are mapped in this dataset, of which 76 are convention, exhibition or conference facilities. That is what open data records, not a complete registry — small function rooms inside hotels and community buildings are consistently under-mapped everywhere.

What does event67 cost for a Texas event?

950 activated attendees means 900 billable after the free 50, so $4,500 for the event. The rate is $5 per activated attendee beyond the first 50, and the total for one event stops at $4,750 however many more attend. Activated means the person claimed their invite and opened the app. Not when you import them, not when the invite is delivered, and not if they register and stay home.

What is the biggest venue in Texas?

AT&T Stadium, at a stated 105,000. That is the practical ceiling for a single-room programme anywhere in the state; above it you are splitting the audience across buildings or looking outside Texas.

Does Texas span more than one time zone?

Yes — 2: America/Chicago and America/Denver. Publish the schedule in the venue's zone, name the zone in the app, and every attendee's phone converts it correctly from there.
