Getting there
George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) is 113 km (70 mi) away. Build a real transfer window into the arrival day and do not schedule anything important before midday.
45 km (28 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.
Bay City has 4 venues mapped in total and a population of 17,471. The Bay City guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
This is one of 2 exhibition and convention venues mapped in Bay City, and the class matters more than the size: a hall is a floor you subdivide, which is a different purchase from a room you fill with chairs.
- trade shows and exhibitions
Built as a floor rather than a seating plan, which is what an exhibition needs.
- multi-track conferences
The same hall subdivides into tracks once the booths come out.
- career fairs
A booth grid and a single controlled entrance is the whole requirement.
