Frequently Asked Questions
- Is Grand City Convention and Exhibition suitable for a 500-person trade show with multiple vendor booths?**
- Yes, this venue is designed for convention and exhibition purposes, making it appropriate for trade shows. However, you'll need to confirm the total square footage can accommodate your booth layout and attendee flow. Contact them directly with your floor plan requirements to ensure the space meets your specific booth count and layout needs. **
- What is included in the venue rental, and what costs extra?**
- The listing doesn't specify what's included in the base rental rate. Before finalizing costs, ask whether the quote covers tables, chairs, basic lighting, sound system, WiFi, and parking. Many convention centers charge separately for AV equipment, setup/breakdown, security, and specialized services, so getting an itemized quote is essential. **
- Can we host a multi-day conference with back-to-back sessions on consecutive days?**
- The venue is open daily from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM, which supports multi-day events. Confirm whether overnight setup/breakdown is permitted, if there are discounts for consecutive-day bookings, and what time you can access the space before the 11:00 AM opening for morning event preparation. **
- How accessible is the venue by public transportation, and what parking is available?**
- Located at Jl. Gubeng Pojok in Genteng, Surabaya, the venue is in a central district. Verify current parking capacity and whether it accommodates large event traffic (buses, vendor trucks). Ask about nearby public transport options and whether they can recommend transportation solutions for attendees coming from outside Surabaya. **
- Do they have preferred catering partners, or can we bring our own caterer?**
- This isn't specified in their listing. Contact the venue to ask whether they provide in-house catering, have preferred vendor lists with negotiated rates, or allow external caterers. Also clarify kitchen access, table setup areas for food service, and any health department requirements. **
- What is the booking timeline, and how much lead time do they typically require?**
- Convention centers often require 2-3 months' notice for major events, though this varies. Ask about their standard booking window, deposit requirements, cancellation policies, and whether they offer better rates for advance bookings or off-peak dates (weekdays vs. weekends).
