The building

It stands at 1336 Campus Dr, 2.2 km (1.4 mi) from the centre of Durham.

Baldwin Auditorium was opened in 1927 and owned by Duke University, which puts it at 99 years old.

A stated 685 makes this a breakout or workshop room rather than a plenary space.

Access and arrival

19 km (12 mi) separates Baldwin Auditorium from Raleigh–Durham International Airport (RDU) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

2.2 km (1.4 mi) out from the middle of Durham — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.

Durham has 25 venues mapped in total and a population of 301,870. The Durham guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

The kind of event it takes

Smaller spaces are where most events actually happen, and Baldwin Auditorium is one of them. A single-track day works; a programme with a trade floor attached does not.

  • 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 685 covers most community and member meetings.
