Default High Density - Low Cost

Hello

I am looking to build a high density network for an internet event in a very large area and I don't know how.

Budget is very limited, so I cannot use xirrus, ruckus or any other more expensive brands.

The venue is very large, but also very open, with only a roof and no walls.

The use will be very high since it is an internet conference and people will be sing their smartphones, tablets and computers.

I am looking for a inexpensive solution that has a very high number of simultaneous connections and high range (1km radius).

I am looking into Mikrotik solutions and Ubiquiti, but need help.

Thanks
KNYX

Does $50,000 fit your definition of inexpensive?
