Every venue mapped in Woodbury 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.
Arrival logistics
Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) is 21 km (13 mi) out — a normal airport transfer, worth an hour in the run of show on the first morning.
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.
Saint Paul, Eagan and Minneapolis are close enough to draw from for a day rate, and to fall back on if Woodbury has nothing free on your dates.

Worth knowing before you sign
No exhibition hall on record
Nothing in the Woodbury 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.
No published capacities
Not one Woodbury 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
80,596 people live in Woodbury itself, but about 3.8 million live in the wider Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI. 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 Woodbury
Suppose 240 attendees claim their invite and open the app at a Woodbury event a mid-sized Woodbury programme, since no Woodbury venue publishes a capacity in open data. Here is exactly what event67 charges, with the free 50 taken off the top.
- 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 Woodbury 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 Woodbury venue, so match the format to the room on your site visit rather than to a number on a listing.
- award ceremonies
2 fixed-seat houses give you a stage, lighting and sightlines without building any of it.
