10,000 seats is arena scale, so it works as a plenary room with breakouts hosted nearby.

How attendees reach it
89 km (55 mi) to Sioux Falls Regional Airport (FSD) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
This is an out-of-centre venue — 54 km (33 mi) from the middle of Sioux City — which usually buys you parking and load-in access in exchange for a transport plan.
Sioux City has 19 venues mapped in total and a population of 86,875. The Sioux City guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
A room this size is a plenary and nothing else. Keynotes, awards and general sessions work; the breakouts, the exhibition and the catering all have to happen somewhere else, so the venue is really the anchor of a campus rather than the whole event.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 10,000 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
