If it's in the center of the kingdom, well-publicized, and not in conflict with a major event, 50-100 people, maybe a little more.  (Sheer guess, but I believe it.)

Well, having a bardic collegium at King's College isn't an event of bards gathered together in mutual support; it's just one of many tracks.  This is a Good Thing, and I recommend having a bardic track at King's College, but that doesn't replace the event we were talking about.

For one thing, if it's at King's College, I'll still attend, but I'll have other classes and won't be able to spend as much time at the bardic track.  For another, the track either loses many of the students, or we encourage the bards to avoid other classes.  This is not a Good Thing.

Have the track at King's College.  Also have a Bardic Collegium.  They are not interchangeable.
