Definitely going to Atlanta, Georgia. One of the largest international airports along with a huge convention center (Georgia World Congress Center). Also lots to do during spare time.
But more traffic than Louisville, somehow. Atlanta would be a good spot, though.
And although Atlanta’s airport is huge, there will be teams still trying to find their way out of the airport during the Saturday finals. 
I could literally drive 20 min to worlds and sleep in my own bed at night.
ATL is one of best international airports especially in the us so I’m all for Atlanta. Especially for all of the international teams.
our team went to worlds the last year it was in anaheim. they loved it, and id love to get to experience that
I’m fine with it staying in Louisville, as it’s a great venue - I can’t imagine there’s too many options that have both a large conference space and an arena connected like that - and it’s close enough that we don’t need to fly. That being said, a change would be nice, so long as the new venue is just as nice as the current one.
I know it’ll never happen because VEX is US-based, and how many US teams there are, etc… but Toronto anyone? I’d be fine driving 30 mins instead of 9 hours 
I can’t think of a better venue than the Kentucky Expo Center, but since it would cost much less for Vex to transport everything there, I would say somewhere in Texas, probably Dallas, would be the best places. Dallas has a large international airport, is close to the Vex HQ, and, importantly, has a large convention convention center.
I have a high expectation for it to be in Indianapolis. Indiana is currently one of the largest states for VEX and our city has a TON of support for robotics. (Our City competition used to be hosted in Bankers Life Field house and the Convention Center, and it has turned to State being in Lucas Oil.
Atlanta is also where TSA Nationals is held so that could be realistic.
I see a lot of feasibility issues with the Indy Convention Center/Lucas Oil. Even though there’s a tunnel connecting them, they are still fairly separated. It’s also worth pointing out that it’s an extremely expensive facility. Our State Championship costs $200 for a single day event just in Lucas Oil. Obviously Worlds is a more expensive event, but it is my guess that Lucas Oil costs significantly more than the KEC/Freedom Hall option.
One other thing is the size of the venue. It was really awesome to see so many people in Freedom Hall last Saturday for the game reveal. Taking @Dave_Flowerday’s 19,000-seat estimate, Lucas Oil sits at about 67,000 seats–3.5x the seats. That facility fills up for Super Bowls and NCAA Championships. It will not fill up for the VEX World Championships. I wouldn’t like seeing the empty seats. As we all see at the State Championships, the empty seats are like an ocean of blue.
If Worlds were to move to Indy, some things would have to change. For example, we’d either have to say goodbye to the team party or VEX would need to host it themselves at the facility. There’s nothing fun around Lucas Oil.
For those that have not seen this yet. KEC confirmed for 2020. See my post from this other thread…
The days looks kinda odd though… starting on Thu and ending on a Tue?
Tue seems fair enough if we factor in time for tearing down. But starting on a Thu?
And also… the number of days would mean that VRC and VexIQ will have to be at the same time?
My Guess it is April 22-25 for VRC…
But that’s the problem… according to the website, the start date is 23 Apr, and not 22 Apr.
This may be unlikely, but maybe VEX is doing something different in 2020. It isn’t out of the ordinary for VEX to change the Worlds schedule. Only a few years ago did they split VEX high school, middle school and VEXU with VEXIQ. I guess we will see in a year.
I have not seen dates for Worlds 2020 on RoboticsEducation.org pages…
did I miss something?
I just received an email from a colleague who stated the dates as starting the 22, not sure where he got his information.
It was based on @AidenPyle post… and the dates is according to the list of events listed (for Apr 2020) in KEC website.
Just find the dates listed kind of strange thats all.
Nothing official heard from RECF yet.
They usually tend to post information about worlds at the EP Summit, so I’m sure we’ll get confirmation there
It usually costs teams more than that to go to Worlds…
