Access and arrival
Abilene Regional Airport (ABI) sits 7 km (4.3 mi) out, so a same-day return is realistic for anyone flying in for one session.
The centre of Abilene is 3.3 km (2.1 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Abilene has 24 venues mapped in total and a population of 130,501. The Abilene guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
A room for 4,600 is a plenary space in practice, whatever it is classified as. It ranks 2nd among the 24 venues mapped in Abilene.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
The app bill, at this size
A Moody Coliseum programme at 950 activated attendees — sized to the stated capacity of Moody Coliseum — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
