Getting there

Allow half an hour each way to Santa Barbara Municipal Airport (SBA), 13 km (8.1 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.

Being 0.3 km (0.2 mi) from the middle of Santa Barbara means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.

Santa Barbara has 22 venues mapped in total and a population of 87,291. The Santa Barbara guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

The seats do not move, which is the whole trade. You get sightlines, acoustics and a lighting rig you would otherwise have to rent, and you give up the ability to put tables in the room. Arlington Theatre is 1st of 4 such houses mapped in Santa Barbara.

  • award ceremonies

    Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.

  • product launches

    A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.

  • multi-track conferences

    Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.
