I'd probably agree that limiting attendance at a Crown event is not the best choice. There will be complaints, and they will be loud.

I don't know if you are looking for camping sites or halls for coronation?

Basically, we use a few large sites for camping and are always on the hunt for more. Preferably they are near an airport (half hour) and can hold a couple thousand people (big events here). Crowns and the summer coronation are camping events, and 12th Night coronation switched to 'convention' style at a hotel or hotels at a convention-plex. I was leary at first, but it ended up being a lot of fun.

The sites for camping include a few state parks, and private areas that people go out and find. A $7000 rental fee is not out of line for our large events - especially in 'downtown' of the Kingdom. The site of An Tir West War is on, I believe, private property in the boonies near the California/Oregon border. Normally that would be a recipe for low turnout BUT the royals of both kingdoms LOVE this event and so the clan follows, as it were.

Our kingdom A&S events are now held at schools with hotels nearby. They are usually pretty cheap to rent. I do have to say that sit down kingdom feasts are a thing of the past, and replaced by local feasting events around the holiday season.
