How attendees reach it

At 81 km (50 mi), Des Moines International Airport (DSM) makes arrival day a travel day. Open registration the evening before if you can.

27 km (17 mi) from the centre puts this outside comfortable walking range of any hotel district, so the shuttle is part of the event rather than an extra.

The published number for the venue is +1-641-236-3203.

Newton has 8 venues mapped in total and a population of 15,709. The Newton guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Programming it

The seats do not move, which is the whole trade. You get sightlines, acoustics and a lighting rig you would otherwise have to rent, and you give up the ability to put tables in the room. Grinnell Arts Center is 1st of 2 such houses mapped in Newton.

  • 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.
