Long Beach Marriott, at 4700 Airport Plaza Drive by Long Beach Airport, has 15,763 sq ft of event space, led by the 6,000 sq ft Grand Ballroom with 18 ft ceilings. Above the Line provides audio, video, lighting and LED for conferences, galas and weddings.
Next to Long Beach Airport, the hotel pairs an 18 ft ceiling ballroom that divides into six salons with aviation-named meeting rooms and a boardroom. We size sound, video and lighting to each room from the hotel's own chart.
Room names, sizes and capacities come from the hotel's Events page at marriott.com. Photos are the hotel's own. Production notes describe a typical Above the Line setup for each space.
The hotel's largest room, for up to 650 theater style and 400 at dinner.
Theater 650 · Reception 600 · Banquet 400 · Schoolroom 300
With 18 ft ceilings in the Grand Ballroom, we fly a lighting truss over the stage and run IMAG to two large screens for a 650-seat session.
The two largest ballroom sections, for up to 165 theater style.
Each: Theater 165 · Reception 150 · Banquet 100
For a breakout in Salon C or D, we set the screen at the short end and raise it high enough that the back of the 60 ft room has clear sightlines.
Ballroom sections for up to 75 at a reception.
Each: Theater 70 · Reception 75 · Banquet 50
When the ballroom splits into smaller salons, we give each room its own projector and audio, and check the airwalls for sound bleed.
Meeting rooms for up to 37.
Each: Theater 37 · Reception 37 · Banquet 30 · U-shape 25
For a U-shape workshop in Post or Earhart, we place a display at the open end and a conference mic on each table run.
Two pairs of breakout rooms for up to 38 each.
Rickenbacker I, II: Theater 38 · Lindbergh I, II: Theater 35
For breakouts in Lindbergh and Rickenbacker, we set a projector and screen in each room, with a speakerphone for remote presenters.
A boardroom for meetings of up to 10.
Conference 10
For a board meeting in the Ruffin Boardroom, we add a camera bar and table mics to the wall display for video calls.
All figures come from the capacity chart on the hotel's Events page.
