What Brown Stadium is
It stands at 112 Sessions Street, 02912, 2.5 km (1.6 mi) from the centre of Providence.
Brown Stadium was opened in 1925 and owned by Brown University, which puts it at 101 years old.
20,000 seats is arena scale, so it works as a plenary room with breakouts hosted nearby.

Getting there
66 km (41 mi) to Logan International Airport (BOS) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
The centre of Providence is 2.5 km (1.6 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Providence has 30 venues mapped in total and a population of 194,706. The Providence guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
At 20,000 the seating bowl is the point and the floor is the room you are actually booking. Plan the day around one big moment here and put everything that needs a smaller room in a second building.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 20,000 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
