Title: Question about panel rooms' seating capacity?
Post by: Firefury Amahira on May 19, 2014, 11:54:50 AM
Probably should have asked this sooner, but what's the seating capacity looking like for the panel rooms this year? (Or at least an estimate?) One of the panels I help with (Fanfic 369) was basically packed to capacity last year, and we're expecting a pretty big turnout again this year, only now we've got handouts with additional material for the panel attendees, but our print count right now is a total shot in the dark. If we have even a vague idea of how many people we can expect at max, that'd help a lot.

Thanks!  :)

Panels 1 - In excess of 1,000 seats.
Panels 2 - 400-500 seats Friday through Saturday at 6pm.
Panels 2 - 900 + seats from Saturday at 7pm onward.
Panels 3 - 150+ (I think close to 200)
Panels 4 - 100 or less.
Fan Events Room - Seating for roughly 50 people, lots of open floor space.
'Special' Fan Events Room - only Friday night/Sat. morning - Approximately 400.
