How attendees reach it
Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is 18 km (11 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.
Being 0.4 km (0.2 mi) from the middle of Seattle means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.
Seattle has 119 venues mapped in total and a population of 780,995. The Seattle guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
2,130 is enough for a whole programme in a single room, which removes the hardest logistics problem an event has. Ask what the room looks like empty — the seated figure and the usable one are rarely the same.
- networking mixers
An independent space with its own character, which a mixer benefits from more than a conference does.
- fundraisers and galas
A room with a personality is worth more at a gala than square footage is.
- community meetings
Room for 2,130 covers most community and member meetings.
