Travel to Bramlage Coliseum
Manhattan Regional Airport (MHK) is 9 km (5.6 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.
The centre of Manhattan is 2.7 km (1.7 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Manhattan has 18 venues mapped in total and a population of 54,700. The Manhattan guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
What fits in this room
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 12,528 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
