Looks like a lot of great speakers.
Are people going to this? What kind of turn out is expected?
Registration is cheaper than some other Bitcoin events and Chicago is centrally located, which means easier travel for many Americans. I'd be surprised if less than 1,000 showed.
Looks like they'll have plenty of space for it:

The South Building is designed to service events that offer extensive exhibit as well as meeting activities. Highlights include:
Hall A that provides a total of 840,000 square feet of exhibit space. When used inconjunction with the North Building, shows can span 1.2 million square feet of exhibit space on one level.
Forty three meeting rooms that provide 156,000 square feet of space
The Grand and Vista Ballrooms – one at 33,740 square feet and a second at 21,365 square feet – both with extensive pre-function area
