Canton has 9 venues mapped in total and a population of 69,211. The Canton guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
5,200 is enough for a whole programme in a single room, which removes the hardest logistics problem an event has. Ask what the room looks like empty — the seated figure and the usable one are rarely the same.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
