Is this the largest convention numbers wise that the city has seen? Obviously this city is a hub for conventions, but 25k kids plus probably another thousand or so adults. That's a HUGE group.

No doubt it's a huge group. Events like Essence and Bowl games and the like bring a lot more people, but as far as a pure convention, it's one of the biggest of the year, no doubt.

We are usually good for a couple 30K plus conventions each year, maybe one in the spring and one in the fall.

This website is pretty cool for seeing who is in town.
