Coronado Island Marriott Resort & Spa, at 2000 Second Street in Coronado, has 34,234 sq ft of event space, including the 7,455 sq ft Coronado Ballroom and bayfront lawns facing the San Diego skyline. Above the Line provides audio, video, lighting and LED for conferences, galas and weddings across the resort.
Across the bay from downtown, the resort pairs the Coronado Ballroom and a run of breakout rooms with lawns, a pool deck and a private pier. We size sound, video and lighting to each space from the resort's own chart.
Room names, sizes and capacities come from the resort's Events page at marriott.com. Photos are the resort's own. Production notes describe a typical Above the Line setup for each space.
The resort's ballroom, for theater seating of up to 660 and dinners of up to 550, with a bay-view foyer.
Theater 660 · Reception 600 · Banquet 550 · Schoolroom 430
For a 660-seat general session in the Coronado Ballroom, we set a center stage with two side screens, and add delay speakers for the back rows.
Ballroom sections for breakouts and dinners, and a naturally lit foyer for receptions of up to 400.
Salon C or D: Theater 220 · Reception 200 · Banquet 180–200 · Foyer: Reception 400
When the ballroom splits into salons, we give each its own projector and audio, and stage registration and signage in the foyer.
A run of breakout rooms for sessions of 30 to 60.
Coronado 7: Theater 60 · Reception 50 · Banquet 50 · Schoolroom 35
For a breakout program across the Coronado rooms, we set matching displays and audio in each, so every session runs the same way.
Smaller ballroom and meeting rooms for sessions of up to 192.
Tidelands Ballroom: Theater 192 · Banquet 160 · Reception 120 · Schoolroom 120
For a 190-seat session in the Tidelands Ballroom, we use two screens on the long wall to keep sightlines clear under the 9.9 ft ceiling.
Outdoor spaces facing San Diego Bay and the skyline, for receptions of up to 750.
Poolside: Reception 750 · Bayside Lawn: Reception 400 · Banquet 350 · Skyline Terrace: Theater 350
For an evening reception on the Bayside Lawn, we light the trees and hang festoon lighting, and aim the speakers toward the bay.
A private pier on the bay for dinners of up to 40, and the Spa Patio for receptions of up to 150.
The Pier: Reception 55 · Banquet 40 · Spa Patio: Reception 150 · Banquet 120
For a dinner on the Pier, we use battery-powered speakers and table lighting, so there is no cabling on the deck.
