PS: we should really formalize one of those proposals+the land use mentioned on that page. 

The San Diego Convention center (where the host ComicCon) is a massive convention center and a collection of conference halls. Total space is 240,000m2.

Tokyo Big Site in Tokyo is even busier - hosting almost a quarter million people for the Comic Market event. (100,000m2

Wikipedia uses:
"exhibition floor" 
"Breakout/meeting room"
"Ballroom"
As the three main categories of spaces at a center, which is what I have heard in the past. a proposal should use the same terms. 

These convention centres are regional and sometimes national or international POI, not to be confused with a building to have an office lunch or a wedding reception.
