Getting there
96 km (60 mi) to Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
A central address is worth more than it looks: no shuttle, no parking plan, and evening sessions that people actually stay for.
Bowling Green has 11 venues mapped in total and a population of 30,463. The Bowling Green guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
A room for 4,700 is a plenary space in practice, whatever it is classified as. It ranks 3rd among the 11 venues mapped in Bowling Green.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.

One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
