Hi Nate,

As the creator for radiant-page-event, I'm a bit biased but what I
created with that extension could easily do what you want making some
assumptions.   Each page would be a conference, you want to manually
control your own calendar via the admin UI and you don't need to
indicate a multiple day event.  You could then add page parts for each
detail on your event such as booth # and external event link.  There
are two newer convenience tags that I've recently added,  next_event
and upcoming_events.  I when I get more free time I'll be adding some
additional features but the extension is designed to be fairly
lightweight for assigning dates to pages.

The readme should include useful information for getting started.  I
also posted a brief tutorial on my blog that may be a bit outdated:

Cheers,
