Ok, Next question:  What was the approximate sqaure footage used for
Brickfest 2006
How many rooms and how much footage was dedicated to display space?
How many panels were held?
Was a Video room used?
Was there a ConSuite (munchies/food room)?

I'm seriously considering volunteering to pick up this torch and am
looking at venue information. If I did so, it would occur in
Indianapolis, IN. I need this information to help determine if there
would be an appropriate venue available and how much it would cost for
me to coordniate it. I'm also waiting to hear from the local LUG to
ensure that I would have the people resources to put it together.

I'd need some figures on prior attendance before I could commit to such

can we find out what the attendance numbers were?



These are the numbers that I could find:
in 2000; 60 people.
in 2001; over 140 people.
in 2002; 200 people.
in 2003; 240 people, also this year was the first public expo, with 380
general admission.
at PDX 2004; 165 people with 1000 general admission.
in 2004 (washington); 285 people with 1200 general admission.
in 2005; over 300 people (maybe 350) with over 3000 general admission.
