Access and arrival
60 km (37 mi) to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
A central address is worth more than it looks: no shuttle, no parking plan, and evening sessions that people actually stay for.
Hammond has 13 venues mapped in total and a population of 23,426. The Hammond guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
Programme this as a theatre, because that is what it is. One track, one stage, an audience facing the same way. Catering and breakouts need a second space nearby.
- award ceremonies
Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.
- product launches
A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.
- multi-track conferences
Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.
The app bill, at this size
A Columbia Theatre for the Performing Arts programme at 240 activated attendees — a plausible programme at a venue of this kind in Hammond — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.

- billable, after the first 50 are free
- 190billable, after the first 50 are free
