Access and arrival
7 km (4.3 mi) to Logan International Airport (BOS). At that distance the transfer is not a planning problem, which is rarer than it sounds.
At 2.6 km (1.6 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.
Boston has 182 venues mapped in total and a population of 673,458. The Boston guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
A fixed-seat house suits a single-track programme: keynotes, panels, award ceremonies and film. It does not suit a trade floor, banqueting or anything that needs the seats to move, so pair it with a nearby function room if you need both.
- 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.
