I love this idea. If not US I will definitely go to Scotland. It's on my bucket list for ancestry reasons.
As far as US goes, I could easily have event space in Mississippi. I love the South and it's my home. However, I don't think most of you big city folks would enjoy the small town atmosphere. Pluses would be food. The South has the best food in the world... of course none of it is good for you and that's why the South is so fat, but it is so good. For music lovers, we have one of the only two Grammy museums in the world. For gamblers we have big casinos that are considered second to Las Vegas. For nightlife we have the best bars with live music. I know I could get event space near Jackson or near Memphis. I also think Chicago is a great location. Two big airports with affordable airfare. Huge city with a ton of stuff to do. Centrally located. Also a lot of Tech business there so I'm sure finding event space would be fairly easy.
