Getting there

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) is 9 km (5.6 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.

At 3.1 km (1.9 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.

Phoenix has 65 venues mapped in total and a population of 1,673,164. The Phoenix guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

A room this size is a plenary and nothing else. Keynotes, awards and general sessions work; the breakouts, the exhibition and the catering all have to happen somewhere else, so the venue is really the anchor of a campus rather than the whole event.

  • award ceremonies

    A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.

  • festivals

    An audience of 14,870 is festival scale, not conference scale.

  • company all-hands

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