Good morning #advice-and-recs Has anyone used AMA Conference Center San Francisco or the Convene at 100 Stockton? Looking for a meeting space for 30ppl in SF. Open to other suggestions, as well. Thanks!
Hi Alyssa! I have not done events in those locations but I spoke with Convene. It was very expensive for the budget my client had. But I did another event for ~37 people at the 731 Market st - it’s Shippo’s office that they rent (a whole floor with desks, lounge area) - it was a 2-day sessions + hackathon - everyone’s liked it. I did bring my AV guys though for the presentations for one day. I’m happy to share more details.
We could use some help from this amazing community -- we are trying to source venues in Boston and SF for June and our client has little to no money. We've looked at Loft on Two in Boston - and similar locations in SF (but they are just too pricey).
1 1/2 day program
150 people in SF and 75 people in BOS
Need main presentation room + 2 small breakout rooms + space to serve lunch
If the venue has built in AV, that is a plus b/c our AV budget is super small too.
Any ideas you may have is much appreciated.
Looking for restaurant recommendations that are open on a Sunday night (7:30 PM), mid-to-upscale for ~9 people in San Francisco (ideally downtown-ish area). Some of the places I've found that look great aren't open on Sundays!
Hi all! We're looking for an event to bring ~30 folks to in San Francisco in November. Things like sporting events suites (but on a weekday - so no 49ers, and the Warriors are a no-go) or big public events where we can treat our people like VIPs. Any locals have any suggestions? TY!

I am looking for a premium/high end event space for about 100 people for a one day event in November that also has space for breakouts in San Francisco.
