Setup & General Labor in Denver

Local field decisions

What changes in Denver?

The Colorado Convention Center's 584,000-square-foot floor divides into as many as six halls, so crew the halls a show actually books rather than the building footprint.

What should the Denver setup and general-labor crew brief cover at Colorado Convention Center, downtown?

The Colorado Convention Center setup brief should begin with the halls actually contracted. A 584,000-square-foot contiguous exhibit floor supports a maximum of six hall divisions. Individual halls run about 90,000 square feet at the low end and 100,000 at the high. Crew size should follow the booked divisions, freight schedule, and task list rather than the full building footprint.

What goes on the Denver call sheet?

Name the dock appointment, report point, hall, case-staging location, supervisor, and completion handoff for each labor wave. If registration and load-in overlap, keep their entrances and duties distinct. A precise hall plan prevents idle labor and congestion at a single mass call.
