If it is a standard one room kind of place, then I guess it’s possible to just put event_space=yes or whatever like an amenity tag on the location point or area generally, or on the space itself inside the larger landuse. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">A convention center could have multiple halls / rooms, and an event could use 1, several, or all of them at once - but having them mapped for the basic understanding of what is possible is the best idea - it doesn’t really matter if an event uses half or all of it, as the invitations and pricing guides will discuss them based on rooms or locations, so it’s best to have those mapped out and represented individually - as that is how people will try to find and orient themselves, or understand what they are renting. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Javbw</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Mar 9, 2015, at 4:15 PM, Warin <<a href="mailto:61sundowner@gmail.com" class="">61sundowner@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class="">

<br class="">
Some places have extensive grounds .. and large buildings.. they can
have several events on at a time .. some take place in both the
grounds and a hall .. others simply take one or the other . These
usually specalise in events only. Cutzon Hall Sydney is an example.
<br class="">
<br class="">
The Botanic Gardens in Sydney off the hire of areas .. and/or
buildings .. for evens .. like weddings. The open areas are usually
open to the public, some of the buildings are only open on special
occasions to the public. <br class="">
<br class="">
Lots and lots of variations. <br class="">
