OCCUPANCY

PricewaterhouseCoopers report on Convention Center occupancy states: It has been recognized industry-wide that the “practical” maximum exhibit hall occupancy rate is approximately 70 percent and the “efficient” range is considered to be approximately 50 to 60 percent. Occupancy levels less than 50 percent generally suggest the existence of marketable opportunities or open dates, while an occupancy rate above 60 percent increases the potential for lost business or “turn-aways.”
