===Assemblies and conventions=== [[File:Convention Jehovah's Witnesses Kraków 2018.jpg|thumb|A Jehovah's Witnesses Convention in [[Kraków]], [[Poland]]]] Each year, Jehovah's Witnesses hold two one-day "Circuit Assemblies", held in each circuit worldwide. Each circuit comprises several congregations in a geographical area. These are held either in Assembly Halls owned by Jehovah's Witnesses, or in rented facilities, such as public auditoriums. Once a year, Jehovah's Witnesses gather at larger assemblies called "Regional Conventions" which are usually three days long, Friday to Sunday. These conventions consist primarily of Bible-based talks, dramatizations, and videos, including demonstrations and experiences of their preaching work.<ref>{{cite book|author=M. James Penton|title=Apocalypse Delayed: The Story of Jehovah's Witnesses|edition=3rd|year=2015|page=116}}</ref> Conventions feature a baptism talk followed by the baptism of new members. Every few years, "International Conventions" are held in selected cities, with visiting delegates from other countries. Attendance at some of these international conventions has exceeded one hundred thousand. The 1958 international convention in New York at [[Yankee Stadium]] and the [[Polo Grounds]] had a peak attendance exceeding 253,000.<ref>{{cite book|author=M.
