Why ERIA Marina
Why it works for 100-person events
One hundred guests fills ERIA Marina's rounds layout exactly, or fits comfortably into theater seating with room to spare. Either way the room stays one space rather than splitting into smaller rooms for a group this size.
- Rounds seating built for exactly 100 guests at tables
- Theater seating for 100 when the event is a single program
- A standing reception for part of the evening without resetting furniture

FAQ
Questions about 100-person events
Does 100 guests fit seated at ERIA Marina?
Yes. Rounds seating is built for exactly 100, and theater seating for 100 leaves room to spare below its 150 capacity.
Can we do a seated dinner for 100 and still have a reception?
Yes. Dinner service at rounds and a bar reception both run in the same evening without changing rooms.
Is 100 people too many for one screen and microphone?
No. The AV is sized to reach a full room of 100 without additional equipment.
